What the creator captured

Danny Kim visited his friend Chef Tim Ma at his new restaurant, Lucky Danger, to challenge him to turn a McDonald's Filet-O-Fish meal into gourmet Chinese dishes. He watched as the chef transformed basic fast food into salt and pepper fish sticks and a classic Taiwanese stir-fried potato dish using a wok. Danny Kim was impressed by the creative repurposing of every ingredient, including using the leftover buns to make a grilled cheese for the chef's daughter.
