NEW YORK – Bravo Media’s Emmy and James Beard Award-winning
series “Top Chef” is embarking on a nationwide search for the utmost talented
and emerging chefs to compete on season 15 of the high-stakes culinary
competition series. This year’s chef meet and greets will take place by
appointment at restaurants of alumni and friends of “Top Chef” in Chicago,
Dallas, New Orleans, New York, Pittsburgh, Portland, San Francisco and
Washington D.C.
Currently in its 14th season and airing Thursday nights at 9pm
ET/PT, “Top Chef” is averaging more than 2 million total viewers, up 4% versus
the prior season. The season premiere (12/1/16) was the most watched season
premiere in over five years in total viewers.*
The competition in Charleston continues on a nostalgic brand
new episode of “Top Chef” airing Thursday, January 26 at 9 PM ET/PT, when
season six winner Michael Voltaggio puts the seven remaining chefs’ palates to
the test with a blindfolded taste experiment.
For the elimination challenge, the chefs are asked to draw inspiration
from their own childhood memories to create dishes for the MUSC Children’s
Hospital Fund charity gala on the ultra-exclusive Kiawah Island. The chefs will need to impress 100 guests in
order to stay in the competition. For a sneak peek, please visit:
