Alyssia Birnbaum, a stay-at-home mom from Texas, hopes her incredible Southern dishes with an Asian twist are enough to win her $100,000. Alyssia spent most of her childhood in Hawaii, which helped shape her Asian comfort food style. Alyssia and her husband have adopted a baby girl and would love to use the money to adopt more children in need.
The table is set for the ultimate culinary clash in this one part cooking competition, one part game show. Host Adam Richman ("Man v. Food") will give homegrown amateur cooks the chance to test their skills against professional chefs. Every down-home cook has that one signature dish or secret family recipe that always gains favor with friends and family. Now, imagine going head to head in the kitchen against five professional chefs, who try to cook your specialty dish even better than you in the hopes of winning over a dinner party made up of the American public. With each savored victory, the cash prize gets bigger and bigger as the home cooks rise to every challenge and outcook the professional chefs. Think you've got what it takes to serve up the competition?
