If just 1 in 10 new restaurants survives its first year, why is culinary know-how the new turn-on and are foodie reality shows scoring big ratings? We’ll host the San Francisco-based contestants from the most recent season of Bravo’s “Top Chef.” Hear them dish details of their cooking lives and “quick fire” your questions about how to heat up the kitchen.

This program was recorded live on August 20, 2008.
