Sponsored by Hidden Valley® Ranch, “Top Chef: Last Chance Kitchen” is all about redemption as the chefs have big hurdles to overcome to secure their spot in the competition. With their dreams of a “Top Chef” title on the line, the veteran chefs will not only compete against themselves, but each week will also have to toe to toe with the new cheftestants as they are eliminated from the main competition. Each week, eliminated chefs will have an opportunity to prove their worth and the chef with the worst dish will pack their knives for good; while the chefs with the winning dishes will get one step closer to making their way back in the competition. 

Episodes of “Top Chef: Last Chance Kitchen” will be made available on Bravotv.com, On Demand or wherever you stream Bravo’s “Top Chef” at the conclusion of each week’s episode.

Season eight of “Top Chef: Last Chance Kitchen” is produced by the Emmy Award-winning Magical Elves with Dan Cutforth, Jane Lipsitz, Casey Kriley and Doneen Arquines serving as executive producers.
