Hell's Kitchen Mondays at 9:00 PM on WVAH Fox 11 The Heat is Rising on When "Hell's Kitchen" Re-Opens Monday, June 12, 2006 on Fox 11
World-renowned chef Gordon Ramsay is back for a second serving of the sizzling unscripted series Hell's Kitchen. He's putting 12 new would-be restaurateurs on the chopping block in the season premiere Monday, June 12 (9:00-10:00 PM ET) on WVAH Fox 11.Hell's Kitchen serves helpings of terror, tears, tantrums and triumphs in this dramatic unscripted series. Adapted from the wildly successful British short-run series of the same name, Hell's Kitchen follows the competing chefs 24/7, capturing the drama, intrigue and high emotion as the restaurant's opening night approaches. These ambitious hopefuls believe they have the drive, talent and desire to run their own restaurant, and they will be tossed into the cauldron, working under Ramsay and fighting for survival. A former pro-soccer-player-turned-Michelin-starred-chef, Ramsay has conquered London's haute cuisine scene. Now he's crossing the Pond again, to discover - or create - America's next culinary star. For the second season, the heat is on and the stakes are high as the contestants endure Ramsay's hellishly intense culinary boot camp for a chance to win the ultimate culinary prize - the coveted title of Executive Chef of a luxurious fine-dining restaurant at the brand-new Red Rock Casino Resort Spa in Las Vegas, currently scheduled to open on April 18. In addition, the winner will be eligible to receive a financial interest in the restaurant and assist in the design of the eatery. The participants may have varying culinary experience, whether as a burger flipper, a mother of six or a barbecue wiz, but one thing they all will have in common is a passion for food. Each week Ramsay will grill the ambitious hopefuls as they attempt to prove they have what it takes to run their own restaurant. He will slice and dice the contestants, keeping only those who possess the right combination of ingredients to ensure success. The contestants' inexperience, combined with perfectionist Ramsay's acid tongue, may look like a recipe for disaster, but for one aspiring restaurateur it's the chance of a lifetime. In this pressure-cooker environment, only one thing is certain: if the contestants can't stand the heat, they'll have to get out of Hell's Kitchen. The contestants believe they have what it takes to work in the adrenalin-fueled atmosphere of a busy kitchen, but they haven't worked for the perfectionist Ramsay before. A man they may fear and respect in equal measure, he will be assessing their performance and driving them to achieve the best. For him, failure is not an option, and nothing and no one will stand in his way. Red Rock Casino, Resort and Spa is located 10 miles west of the Las Vegas Strip at the base of Red Rock Canyon and features 850 rooms, a 35,000- square-foot spa, Rande Gerber's nightclub Cherry, nine restaurants and gaming.
