Season 20 of “Top Chef” will be the “biggest season yet,” says the sneak preview for the 2023 edition of the Emmy-winning culinary competition (watch the video below). That’s because the show is going overseas to London, which will make this the first season of the reality series ever to shoot entirely outside the US. Production begins this month.
But wait, there’s more. While “Top Chef” has always been international in its scope — the reigning champion, Buddha Lo, is an Australian chef of Chinese descent — this season will kick it up a notch. It will be an All-Stars season inviting 16 finalists and winners from “Top Chef” spinoffs around the world to compete for the title. So next year’s champ could make a case for being the best chef in the world. But as always it will be hosted by Padma Lakshmi and judged by Tom Colicchio and Gail Simmons.
