Top Chef: 9x1
Everything's Bigger in Texas
29 chefs gather at the Alamo in San Antonio, Texas, to compete for 16 slots in the 9th season of Top Chef. Tonight they are divided into three groups and must master their challenge to move forward. Some will know their fate immediately and receive a chef coat or be sent home. Others will be on the “bubble” and must compete and be judged again before they know their fates. Yes, it’s bigger in Texas, but it’s also hotter and harder, too.
