EPISODE 1: THE SANDWICHING

CHEF AARON MELENDREZ (Uptown Provisions)

Straight outta Whittier. Skater, punk, tatted-up deli dad. Melendrez earned his stripes behind some of LA’s best bars before flipping the script and opening Uptown Provisions — a mom-and-pop sandwich shop built on heart and craft. Aaron’s bringing the flavor, no filler.

vs.

CHEF TOMMY B (La Sorteds)

From the dance floor to Dodger bleachers, everyone loud enough knows Tommy B. He launched La Sorted’s slinging pies off a porch mid-pandemic, now it’s one of LA’s most iconic pizzerias. No stranger to a rager, Tommy fuels the scene with upside-down pies, cross-country collabs, and hoagie flexes. Tommy’s got LA on lock.

HOSTED BY WEICHAO KONG (standstill tea)

Weichao lives at the intersection of hospitality and performance. Co-founder of Standstill Tea, he brings curated tea ritual and deliberate pace to the energy of the event. As host, he balances ceremony, warmth, and playful anticipation — the perfect guide for a multi-course culinary game.

WITH GUEST JUDGE CHEF KAT TURNER (Highly Likely)

Kat Turner is a Top Chef newcomer, two-time Chopped champion, and the creative force behind Highly Likely — a cafe known for bold, Californian-forward fare. Her judging lens is driven by both technical prowess and approachable, ingredient-driven storytelling.
