The Daily Star, Oneonta, N.Y., Friday, November 21, 2014 10 way up the ladder. They can walk away at any time and keep the cash they've won so far, but the temptation of more money is always there. Of course, should they push on and lose a challenge, they also lose all of the money that they've won. Like any good cooking contest, though, the compe- tition is really just a fun win- dow dressing for the best part: watching skilled chefs put together amazing dishes while under incredible pres- sure in the kitchen. "Kitchen Inferno" is an exciting new take on the popular cooking competi- tion genre, and it's definitely heating up Wednesday nights. Take a risk and check out the Curtis Stone-hosted show when a new episode airs Wednesday, Nov. 26, on Food Network.

Is that a weird question? They're really not two things that traditionally go hand in hand, and yet if the incredi- ble success of the Food Net- work's "Cutthroat Kitchen" has taught us anything, it's that there's a huge appetite for this kind of unconven- tional melange. Alright, so "Cutthroat Kitchen" isn't really gam- bling — the contestants aren't actually betting their own money, just the cash prize that they could poten- tially win. But it still adds a tense element to the Alton Brown-hosted show that would otherwise be absent. In a similar vein, the net- work's latest competition, "Kitchen Inferno," ups the stakes for its contestants, who have the opportunity to walk away with a hefty amount of cash — or lose it all if they get too cocky. Airing Wednesday nights on the Food Network, the Curtis Stone-hosted "Kitch- en Inferno" premiered earli- er this month and is already heating up the airwaves with a new episode set to air on November 26. There's ultimately $25,000 at stake here, but that prize isn't guaranteed. In a format that brings to mind "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" and similar game shows, the contes- tants will face progressively more difficult culinary chal- lenges as they work their Bookhout Funeral 2 x 2 A contestant and host Curtis Stone as seen in "Kitchen Inferno" Cooking this week Fired up: 'Kitchen Inferno' is heating up Wednesday nights
