Chef Race: U.K. vs. U.S. follows sixteen chefs, eight Brits versus eight Americans, as they race across the United States from Los Angeles to New York City in hopes of winning the $100,000 prize. Throughout the journey the chefs are accompanied by Richard Corrigan (MasterChef), who serves as a mentor and judge, and host Claire Robinson. With no money and minimal resources, the chefs must rely on more than their cooking skills. Resourcefulness, ingenuity, leadership and finesse will be just as important on their 3,000 mile adventure.
