Summary:
Have you ever thought you could host your own show? Food Network tests that belief in this competition that focuses on both cooking proficiency and camera skills. Season five introduces 10 new finalists, a return to the original time slot, and promises bigger and tougher challenges, all so the Selection Committee can choose the best person for his or her own six-episode show, a feature in Food Network Magazine and a top spot at the New York City Wine & Food Festival. Join the fun as the brightest stars from the network, and select special guest judges coach these hopefuls toward their dream.
