From creating a dish best served cold in honor of the nation&#8217;s favorite sport, hockey, to embracing Toronto&#8217;s vibrant mosaic of cultures, the chefs are put to the test and must be at the top of their game to stay in the kitchen. The judges&#8217; expectations are at an all-time high when guest judges, including Canadians such as Michael Cera stop by the <em>&#8220;Top Chef&#8221;<\/em> kitchen for a fun trivia game where the chefs have to earn their ingredients and Sarah Levy lends her palate as they put their spin on poutine, the nation&#8217;s beloved dish, and signature ingredient maple syrup.<\/p>\n<p>The cheftestants also are tasked with creating a dish featuring a stunt. Before they hit the kitchen, however, they will have to perform a stunt of their own as they climb to new heights and face their fears atop Canada&#8217;s National Tower, the architectural icon also known as the CN Tower. The competition&#8217;s signature challenge, Restaurant Wars, is back but with a twist, as Kristen and the judges set guardrails on overused concepts they don&#8217;t want to see in hopes of sparking fresh and out-of-the-box ideas.<\/p>\n<p>Later in the season, the chefs head to Calgary, home of the Calgary Stampede, the world&#8217;s largest outdoor rodeo, then travel to Canmore, at the foothills of Banff National Park. The chefs must lay it all out on their plates in order to win the honor of being named Top Chef.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout the season, <em>&#8220;Top Chef&#8221;<\/em> winners, finalists, and favorites return to lend their guidance and expertise, including Richard Blais, Sara Bradley, Nina Compton, Danny Garcia, Ali Ghzawi, Gregory Gourdet, Nicole Gomes, Buddha Lo, Dale McKay and Spike Mendelsohn.<\/p>\n<p>The distinguished rotating team of judges include Andrea Aprea, Denia Baltzer, Daniel Boulud, Jeremy Charles, Ilona Daniel, Greg Tarzan Davis, Connie DeSousa, Wylie Dufresne, Sheila Flaherty, Eden Grinshpan, Brenda Holder, Punkie Johnson, Jet Lee, Susur Lee, Hunter Lewis, Tracy Little, Antonio Park, Clare Reichenbach, Amy Schnieder, Dwight Smith, Clare Smyth, Mattea Roach, Paul Rogalski, David Zilber and Janet Zuccarini.<\/p>\n<p>Directly after the premiere, the digital aftershow &#8220;The Dish with Kish,&#8221; presented by Saratoga\u00ae Spring Water and hosted by Kristen Kish, returns. Kish will be joined each week by a <em>&#8220;Top Chef&#8221;<\/em> alum. The pair will break down all the culinary action from the latest episode while creating a new dish inspired by the biggest culinary questions from the episode, revealing new insights into the creativity and techniques behind challenge-winning dishes. Joining her in the kitchen to talk about the culinary action and give a look behind-the-scenes are <em>&#8220;Top Chef&#8221;<\/em> winners, finalists, and fan favorites Sara Bradley, Joe Flamm, Gregory Gourdet, Mei Lin, Amar Santana, Michael Voltaggio, and Brooke Williamson.<\/p>\n<p>Also following the premiere, Bravo&#8217;s Emmy-winning digital companion series <em>&#8220;Top Chef: Last Chance Kitchen,&#8221;<\/em> presented by\u00a0BMW of North America and hosted by Tom Colicchio, returns for its 14th season.
