If you needed any other reason to believe that the time for Dallas' varied and unique dining scene is finally starting to have the day in the sun it so deserves, turn on your television. Many of the city's best chefs, including Roe DiLeo, Patrick Stark, and (of course) John Tesar, are trying their hand at the celebrity chef life on various Food Network and Bravo properties, like Chopped and Cutthroat Kitchen. Now, Fort Worth chef Blaine Staniford, of acclaimed restaurant Grace, is throwing his hat into the reality TV ring.
There's no denying that the world of cooking shows can be entertaining at best, schlocky and gimmicky at worst. The show that Staniford will appear in, Kitchen Inferno , looks at first glance to be a mix of the two. According to a Food Network blog post about Kitchen Inferno, chefs will compete in a series of "fiery" challenges that progressively become more difficult. If the chef isn't up for the task, he'll have to forfeit his winnings and succumb to "blazing defeat."
