Hell’s Kitchen — Season Premiere is tonight!!!

SO what is Hell’s Kitchen all about? According to the Fox website:

Tuesday nights will sizzle this summer when Chef Gordon Ramsay welcomes the nation’s most talented and trained chefs yet to a sixth course of his unscripted series HELL’S KITCHEN.

Each week Ramsay grills the ambitious hopefuls, putting them through rigorous culinary challenges and testing them to see who can handle the pressure of a fast-paced kitchen where only the skilled survive. In each episode, Ramsay will eliminate one chef while the rest remain to fillet their way toward the grand prize of a Head Chef position at Araxi Restaurant in Whistler, British Columbia, Canada.

Established in 1981, Araxi continues to raise the culinary bar in Whistler. The winning contestant will have the added privilege of joining executive chef James Walt in welcoming the world during the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games.

And why am I particularly interested in THIS season? Well… because my friend, Andy Husbands (of Tremont 647 fame) is one of the chefs!!! And if you watch the video above… it’s pretty clear that he has a little kitchen “mishap” that leaves Ramsay screaming for a medic! Can’t wait !!! (of course only b/c I know he’ s okay now)

You can read Andy’s bio here.

And let me tell you, Andy has a pretty big personality himself (plus he’s an amazing cook)… so this should be a good season! Here’s wishing Andy luck and hope that he outlasts all the other chefs!!!! Go Andy, go Andy!
