Stalking Top Chef

Bravo Announces Top Chef Seattle Air Date, Reveals Contestants

Sadly, not one Seattleite is among the ranks.

This morning Bravo took to Twitter to confirm what everyone and their mother has long known: Season 10 of Top Chef takes place in Seattle.

The "back to basics" season airs November 7 at 10pm and brings a new judge to the panel: Wolfgang Puck. Also revealed was the roster of 21 cheftestants, which weirdly features not a single Seattleite. (Where's the love, Bravo?) The lineup does, however, include one name that may ring a bell: Sheldon Simeon. He beat out some big-deal locals in Food and Wine's Best New Chef competition. And, according to Eater, we can expect cameos aplenty from Seattle chefs, so there's that.

Here's a teaser video of Padma, Gail, and gang talking up the new season and Seattle.
