Tilth Chef Maria Hines will compete on Top Chef Masters season two.

The second season of Bravo’s Top Chef Masters premieres April 7 at 11pm, and Entertainment Weekly reports that these three Seattle chefs will be among the 22 cooks competing: Maria Hines of Tilth, Rovers’ Thierry Rautureau—the so-called Chef in the Hat, and Jerry Traunfeld of Poppy. All three chefs are James Beard award winners.

On each episode of Top Chef Masters, star toques are pitted against each other in cooking challenges, a cash sum is donated to the winner’s charity of choice. The winner of season one, Chicago’s Rick Bayless, received a grand prize donation of $100,000 for his Frontera Farm Foundation.
