Best Bite Wins - Season 1

Kristopher Kyer, AKA Mr. Ringmaster, was the youngest ringmaster in the history of the Ringling Brothers Barnum Bailey Circus.

For his 40th birthday party, client and murder mystery fan James Purtue wants a night of intrigue with a risk-taking menu to match.

The chefs help Rachel celebrate her graduation and birthday with family and friends, at a magic-themed party filled with whimsical dishes and colorful smoking cocktails.

Recently retired clients Don and Cheryl Morrin want to throw the ultimate retirement party filled with their favorite foods from around the world.
