Top Chef 21

Chef's Test (2024)

Top Chef heads to Wisconsin with 15 new chefs, new rules and new host Kristen Kish. With no Quickfire Challenge this week, Kristen, Tom and Gail each task five chefs with cooking a dish they believe is a worthy test of being a good chef.

Living the High Life Top Chef (2024)

“Top Chef” Colorado winner Joe Flamm joins Kristen for the Quickfire Challenge, tasking the chefs to create a dish featuring hops. For the Elimination Challenge, the chefs visit the historic Miller Caves where they must team up to serve a seven-course progressive meal featuring elevated bar snacks.

Take It Cheesy (2024)

The chefs are in for a cherry good time when “Top Chef” All-Star alum Carla Hall and actor, director and writer Clea Duvall join Kristen for the Quickfire Challenge. The chefs must make a dish featuring Door County cherries and a mystery ingredient. For the Elimination Challenge, the chefs will be putting on a Cheese Festival where each chef will be responsible for creating a dish featuring one of 13 different cheeses. The winning dish will be voted on by the diners while the chef going home will be selected with the help of guest judges Carla Hall and local chef Dane Baldwin.

The Wright Way (2024)

With no Quickfire this week, the chefs hit the road and take the Frank Lloyd Wright trail to Madison, touring a few of the Wisconsin native’s notable sites, including Burnham Block, Monona Terrace and Taliesin. For the elimination challenge, the chefs are tasked with creating dishes in teams of two that feature duality and celebrate Frank Lloyd Wright’s legacy as “America’s Architect.” These dishes are more important than ever because this week is a double elimination. Kristen, Tom and Gail are joined by last season’s winner, Buddha Lo, and French chef Dominique Crenn at the judges’ table.
