“Guy’s Grocery Games” Takes the Competition to the Supermarket
Melissa will appear as a reoccurring judge on Food Network’s new primetime competition show, “Guy’s Grocery Games.”
Hosted by Guy Fieri and airing Sunday nights at 8pmET/PT starting October 20, each episode will have four talented chefs competing against one another in three cooking challenges that will require them to navigate the aisles against real-life shopping challenges. Each round will be judged by a rotating list of judges including Melissa d’Arabian, Richard Blais, Beau MacMillan, Jet Tila, Marcela Valladolid and Catherine McCord, among others. The last chef remaining will get to go on a shopping spree, with just two minutes to collect all the items on his or her shopping list. With each item worth $2,000, a total prize of $20,000 is at stake. Let the grocery games begin. Read more on FN Dish.
Melissa will judge today’s episode. In Guy’s first game, four chefs are challenged to make an Italian feast using only canned foods. Then, it’s Closing Time, so the chefs must race against the shutting lights to get all the fixings for the ultimate hot dog dish. The two chefs in the final game must come up with their best rice dish, while incorporating mandatory items from Guy’s wild Grocery List. The winner gets a shopping spree worth up to $20,000. Tune in to watch Melissa judge the chefs!
