We've talked quit a bit about how Roy Choi is taking over the world as of late—from launching a restaurant and bar at Koreatown's The Line hotel to playing an integral role in Jon Favreau's food-centric film Chef and starring in his own show on CNN—the latter of which just released its first episode online.
