I didn’t realize a new season was coming up until I started watching Food Network’s Tournament of Champions tonight and googling people. It starts Thursday—anyone else watching?

I’ll be watching! Fun fact - it was planned to film in Paris and they did all of the scouting and even filmed an episode. However, it was shut down after 48 hours as the violated European labor laws. That’s why it was eventually filmed in the UK.

This cast sounds pretty cool: 16 winners and finalists representing 11 different Top Chef versions around the world.

I'm going to try to keep up instead of watching 6 months later on my DVR. I'm super excited.

Huh I guess I never finished watching TC Houston 🤣. Oh well!
Does anyone know if there's any way to watch any of the international seasons are available to watch anywhere? I'm willing to add (another) streaming service if I can watch some new Top Chef.

I watched it last night. I'm excited to meet all these international chefs.
I had no idea there were so many worldwide versions. And that the versions weren't all similar to the US one. I think it was the French contestant who said he'd never had less than 1.5 hours for a challenge.

That’s why it was eventually filmed in the UK. I wonder if this was just gossip, after watching the first episode. The finale was filmed in Paris, which makes the one episode and shut down after 48 hours make sense. |

Not a friend, just someone I met that day, so who knows? But I believed them. |
