Bravo TV Renews Top Chef & Top Chef Masters – What a Surprise.

New Top Chef Masters Host, Chef Curtis Stone

Let’s keep this one short and sweet. Bravo TV has decided to renew Top Chef for a 9^th season, just in case you were worried that Top Chef All Stars would be your last taste of this savory series. Casting for the 9^th season of Top Chef will begin in a few months.

Top Chef Masters will also return for a brand new season – and a shiny new host. Hottie Aussie celebrity chef Curtis Stone will replace former host Kelly Choi for the 3^rd season of Top Chef Masters. I wasn’t really into the last season of Top Chef Masters, but may just have to tune in this year…
