It premiered on YouTube on September 9, 2007. The show features a Japanese woman known only as “Chef” who prepares the featured dish of the episode while her toy poodle Francis (via voiceover) narrates the process. While Chef speaks in Japanese, Francis narrates the episodes in English, a decision designed to expand the show’s audience. Though initially focusing on Japanese cuisine, the show later expanded to include cuisine from other regions. New episodes were uploaded each Friday, before switching to a different release structure in early 2017. Despite the show’s popularity and public appearances by Chef, the identities of both Chef and the show’s producer are intentionally undisclosed out of privacy concerns.\r\nOver time, the show has increased in popularity, going from a low budget, low production value channel to gaining a cult following and having over 1.4 million channel subscribers. Reviews have attributed the show’s popularity to its simplicity, granular step-by-step approach to cooking, and Francis and Chef’s pleasant, anxiety-free approach. The show is among YouTube’s 10 most subscribed cooking and food channels and has garnered positive attention, public appearances, and awards.\r\nIn 2015, the show’s popularity resulted in a spinoff web series called Go! Francis!, where a stuffed toy version of Francis travels throughout Japan discussing aspects of Japanese food culture, visiting places of culinary interest, and interviewing professionals in the food industry. The web series is also hosted on the same YouTube channel as Cooking with Dog. Francis died in late 2016, prompting an eventual announcement that the show would no longer continue to produce regular content, but would instead release occasional new episodes.\r\n\r\n<a title=\"see more at wikipedia\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Cooking_with_Dog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">see more at Wikipedia<\/a>\r\n\r\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HiBYC762QUM\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe>\r\n\r\nCheck More at <a title=\"check more\" href=\"https:\/\/htm101.com\/track.php?c=cmlkPTgyMDQ1OCZhaWQ9NjIyNTgxODI\">https:\/\/htm101.com\/track.php?c=cmlkPTgyMDQ1OCZhaWQ9NjIyNTgxODI<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cooking with Dog is a Japanese cooking show web series.
