Nickel City Chef Season One was a very popular, sold-out series of high energy, high stakes cooking competitions featuring WNY’s top chefs and secret ingredients from our own region. Tickets for the entire series sold out in less than 3 days!
Currently, Nickel City Chef is accepting Challenging Chef applications for Season Two. We are excited to bring WNY a season that is twice as long and twice as exciting!
Nickel City Chef takes place in one of the city’s best kept secrets–a fully restored turn-of-the-century warehouse on Buffalo’s West Side (home to Artisan Kitchens & Baths). Completely outfitted with two competition-worthy kitchens, this unique setting is the ideal location for guests to enjoy snacks and drinks while experiencing this one-of-a-kind cooking competition first hand.
The audience watches as the Nickel City Chefs and their challengers attempt to create the three best dishes in under an hour! They will employ classic and modern techniques in order to showcase their skills and the secret ingredient. All of Nickel City Chef’s secret ingredients come from right here in Western New York!
Guest judges (from as far as Toronto and Philadelphia) and local food professionals will determine which chef prepares the most technically perfect, creative and delicious cuisine. As a member of the audience, you’ll even have a say by voting for your favorite!
