BRAVO MEDIA RENEWS "TOP CHEF" AND EMBARKS ON A NATIONWIDE CASTING CALL

This Season of "Top Chef" Continues With an Epic Two-Part Restaurant Wars Showdown Kicking Off Thursday, February 4 at 9pm ET/PT

NEW YORK - February 1, 2016 - This February, Bravo Media's Emmy and James Beard Award-winning series "Top Chef" is searching the country for the best up-and-coming chefs to compete on season 14 of the high-stakes culinary competition series. This year's casting calls will take place at restaurants from "Top Chef" alumni in Los Angeles, Portland, Las Vegas, Denver, Houston, Minneapolis, New Orleans, Philadelphia and New York.

Currently in its 13th season and airing Thursday nights at 9pm ET/PT, "Top Chef" is the #1 food program on cable in 2016 among P25-54 with this season averaging 1.8 million total viewers and 1.2 million P25-54, up 5 percent and 6 percent respectively from the prior season (Source: Nielsen L3, #1 cable food program from 12/28/15-1/24/16).

Next week, the iconic Restaurant Wars is back and bigger than ever with a two-part episode airing Thursday, February 4 and 11 at 9 PM ET/PT. For the first time in "Top Chef" history, the Chefs are opening their restaurants for both lunch and dinner services. No one is safe as each chef must run front of house or act as the executive chef in one of the services. The pressure is on as two services means twice the drama.
