The Big Picture Season 16 of Top Chef aired in 2018. The top three finalists of the Kentucky season of the reality series were Eric Adjepong, Sara Bradley, and Kelsey Barnard Clark, and the latter took the top prize. Eric was eliminated before the final, but that elimination did not deter his career. Before Top Chef, Eric received his degrees from Johnson and Wales University in culinary arts and nutrition.
Now, Eric is hosting a new Food Network series, Wildcard Kitchen, a new competition series with a poker twist.Collider had the opportunity to speak with Eric about the new series, as well as the state of West African cuisine in the American culinary world. When asked about the state of West African cuisine in fine dining, Eric said: “West African flavors, and cuisines from all over the continent are seen more in the European culinary world than in America. So, while things have progressed internationally, Americans are just now being introduced to flavors from the continent.”

The new series blends cooking competition with poker, an unusual but exciting concept. When asked about his poker skills, Eric was very candid, and said, “Not at all!” While he may not be a professional poker player, but he has picked up things watching his contemporaries compete. Wildcard Kitchen takes place “after hours” in the Food Network test kitchen.
