Alex vs. America Season 5
Alex has outcooked more than 80 elite chefs from over 35 states (including masters of over two dozen cuisines). And despite battling three chefs at a time, she’s never been eliminated in the first round.
This season will be hosted by Eric Adjepong, who will raise the stakes and bring in the most celebrated chefs, the winningest champions and Alex’s toughest opponents ever who will all join forces to take her down.
In each episode, Alex will go up against three expert chefs in two cooking rounds where anyone can be sent home, including Alex. With ultimate bragging rights and $15,000 on the line, the chefs will battle to see if they have what it takes to beat Alex.
With surprising all-star chefs around every turn, minds will be blown, friendships will be tested, and challenges will be won and lost.
In the premiere episode Eric will introduce Alex to this season’s theme, “Alex’s Nightmares.” The episode will feature Alex taking on some of the best competition chefs in the game, three Tournament of Champions winners: Antonia Lofaso, Tiffani Faison, and Mei Lin. Each of these champs defeated five other All-Star Chefs in a row without a single loss to win their title. Not only are these chefs some of the most formidable competitors, but they are also close friends and colleagues of Alex, which will render the two rounds of cooking even more intense. It will be a battle for the ages to see if Alex can defeat these conquerors of the randomizer. The ending result delivered by judges Kat Cora and Susan Feniger will either allow Alex to keep her name in lights or become her worst nightmare.
