Myrtle Beach Chefs Face Off In New Cooking Channel Competition
As someone who loves to cook, every weekend I devour as many food competition shows as I can find. This weekend a new series debuted featuring chefs at many of our favorite Myrtle Beach, South Carolina restaurants. Chef Swap at the Beach filmed six episodes this summer and airs every Saturday at 7 p.m. eastern on Cooking Channel. Here’s how it works. Host Chef Amanda Freitag of Chopped on Food Network, visits two restaurants each week. She challenges chefs at each restaurant to leave their comfort zone and swap kitchens with the other chef. The chefs have no idea where they will be cooking. The ingredients are also a mystery to them, as well as what they will cook. They can take one ingredient with them from their own kitchen. The competitors will have 60 minutes to complete their dish to impress the judges.
Restaurants featured in the series include Hook & Barrel, Big Mike’s Soul Food, Ciao!, Drift: A Coastal Eatery, Tidal Creek Brewhouse, 44 & King, Bonfire Taqueria in Conway, Perrone’s Restaurant, Bistro 217, Johnny D’s Waffles & Bakery, Winna’s Kitchen and Sea Captain’s House. We vacation in Myrtle Beach often, so we can’t wait to see our favorite restaurants in the spotlight!
