Julian's Celina Tio will be back on your television sets tonight. Fresh off a strong bid to become The Next Iron Chef, Tio is hoping to win Top Chef Masters. The Bravo show will pit 12 cheftestants against one another in a series of weekly elimination challenges that begin airing tonight (and on subsequent Wednesdays) at 10 p.m. Tio is holding watch parties at Julian and serving a four-course meal for $35.
Tio is not the only Kansas Citian hoping to win a reality cooking show. Bartender Sandy Digiovanni is currently in the running on America's Next Great Restaurant. Her Heaven and Hell concept with a dual menu that presents healthy and sinful options has been well-received by the judges. ANGR (which is what I feel when I watched the premiere) airs on Sundays at 7 p.m. on NBC. So, Fat City readers, let's play casting agent for a minute. Which KC chef, yet to grace the small screen, would you like to see cooking in the name of the City of Fountains?

We've already seen Michael Smith on TV back in the day when he and Debbie Gold were still together, on that weird "Ready, Set, Cook" show or whatever it was.
I know I harp on Pangea, and now that she's a new mom she probably wouldn't have the time, but I always thought Wendy Rudderforth would be excellent on a reality cooking show - beautiful, talented, and sharp.
