It’s a whole new ballgame for the competing chefs on Bravo’s Top Chef: Texas. For the first time ever, season nine will boast a record 29 chefs who will see if they have what it takes to become an official cheftestant and qualify to wear the Top Chef coat. Returning this season are hosts Padma Lakshmi, head judge Tom Colicchio, and Gail Simmons from Food & Wine Magazine.
