Amongst the actual judges of the show there will be, (to name a few) Saveur editor James Oseland (above right), former New York magazine restaurant critic Gael Greene (center), and British food critic Jay Rayner (left).

Each episode of Top Chef Masters holds two challenges for the chefs.The first is a twist on the classic Top Chef Quickfire Challenge which tests their basic abilities.  The food will be tasted and evaluated by the judges and a wide range of tasters for whom the challenge is aimed, whether it is patrons at a five-star restaurant or a room full of hungry kids.

Bravo states the difference between Top Chefs Masters and the original Top Chef…

” The Quickfire Challenge will be a twist on the usual test of basic skills. It’s assumed these folks know what they’re doing.  Each Quickfire Challenge will be judged by a blind taste test and a five-star system, similar to fine dining reviews.“

So tune in, this series will debut June 10th at 10:00pm EST/ 9:00pm Central.
