Buffalo Chef To Be On New Cooking Show

Coming up later this month you will see a very familiar face on the Food Network.

The Food Network is kicking off a new competition show called "24 In 24: Last Chef Standing" and it will feature a private chef from Western New York.

"24 In 24: Last Chef Standing" pits 24 chefs against each other in 24 food challenges in 24 consecutive, non-stop hours. The 24-hour competition will test each chef's skills, creativity, stamina, and patience.

Only one chef will be remaining standing at the end of the competition and they will win $50,000 and an amazing trip of a lifetime. Buffalo's own Chef Camille Le Caer will have a chance to claim the grand prize.

"24 In 24: Last Chef Standing" will also have some star power when it comes to the judges. It will be judged by celebrity chefs Eric Adjepong, Maneet Chauhan, Scott Conant, Stephanie Izard, Jet Tila, Bryan Voltaggio, Michael Voltaggio, and Brooke Williamson.

“24 in 24: Last Chef Standing” will premiere on April 14 at 8 p.m. on Food Network and will also be available to stream on Max.

This isn't the first time that a local chef has been on the Food Network.

Back in December of 2023, Buffalo native and professional chef Mike Andrzejewski was on an episode of "Chopped" on the Food Network.

He was part of a special "Legacy of Julia Child" Chopped Tournament that had chefs try to recreate her legendary recipes.
