According to Bravo, "Chefs with a passion for food, creativity, a thorough knowledge of cooking techniques and trends and oodles of charisma are what we’re looking for. We want talented, experienced chefs with that flare that puts you over the top."
Fans that faithfully watch reality cooking shows like Hell's Kitchen, Iron Chef and The Next Food Network Star, aren't naive. They know exactly what Bravo is looking for. In other words, they're not looking for frumpy lunch ladies or sweaty dish washer-turned-line cooks. They want the pretty people that can capture the hearts – and eyes – of devoted fans.
Top Chef has gotten really serious the last few seasons. The hosts are tougher, and the guest judges are top notch chefs themselves looking for one tough cookie that can hold his or her own in a hot kitchen. Although Top Chef is a more family-friendly show than say, Hell's Kitchen, where shouting, swearing and belittling the cheftestants are the norm, Top Chef is getting a little uppity.
Bottom Line
If you've got a pretty smile or a killer six-pack, can get your audience to take sides, watch your own back, cover half your body in tattoos (they especially like Top Chef tatts), add in a few token piercings, you probably have what it takes to try out for a Top Chef casting call.
So, are you up to the challenge? Are you ready to compete on Bravo’s smash hit competition series for a once-in-a-lifetime chance at being Top Chef? Then, go to bravotv. com to complete all their paperwork. Download an application and send in your best your video. Whether you mail it in or go in person, do it soon. Everyone wants to be Top Chef, and that line is going to be down the street and around the corner. They say don't bring your knives, just check the required items on the list and show up.
If worse comes to worse, and they tell you to pack your knives and go home, you can always say you mopped the floors with the best chefs in the world!
