DESCRIPTION:
(from Apple's press release, November 2025) Today, Apple TV announced "The Unlikely Cook with Awkwafina," a new eight-episode unscripted food series starring and executive produced by award-winning comedian, writer and actor Nora Lum, aka Awkwafina ("Quiz Lady," "The Farewell"). In the series, Nora embarks on a deeply personal cross-country journey as she explores contemporary Asian American cuisine, starting with her family's remarkable legacy. Nora's family ran Lum's, the iconic Cantonese restaurant in Flushing, New York, and the very first in a now thriving Chinatown. But despite growing up in the family business, she can't cook. At all. She could ruin an instant ramen.
