Bravo's Emmy and James Beard Award-winning series Top Chef returns for its fifth season, bringing 17 promising chefs to the big apple. Drawing inspiration from New York's diverse cuisine, the chefs team up in their first challenge to shop in various neighborhoods around the city to ultimately craft dishes influenced by the ethnic flavors of their chosen districts. One of the world's most famous chefs and restaurateurs, Jean George Vongerichten, serves as guest judge.
