The elite chefs entering Bobby’s speakeasy kitchen are a culinary murderers’ row, including heavy hitters Maneet Chauhan, Nini Nguyen, Dale Talde, Jet Tila, and Bryan Voltaggio. The ten-episode season premieres Tuesday, September 2nd at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Food Network and streams the next day on HBO Max.

“This season of Triple Threat is a special one – I’m excited to introduce new titan Ayesha Nurdjaja, who I handpicked from the many candidates across the country. She is a Brooklyn-born chef with global flavors in her pocket and joins Triple Threat veterans Brooke Williamson and Michael Voltaggio to complete a close-to unbeatable team,” said Bobby Flay.

In the season premiere, Bobby introduces the newest titan, Ayesha Nurdjaja, who joins Michael Voltaggio and Brooke Williamson in the exclusive club. Bobby is not taking it easy on them as he invites top-tier competitor Nini Nguyen to challenge the trio in three rounds judged by the culinary royalty Daniel Boulud.

In addition to Maneet Chauhan, Dale Talde, Jet Tila, and Bryan Voltaggio, the competitors include Karen Akunowicz, Avishar Barua, Adrianne Calvo, Martel Stone, and Michelle Wallace.

“Ayesha is a talented and well-known chef and restaurateur in New York City, but she is a newcomer to food competitions. Bobby saw something special in her and knew she had what it takes to be a titan – so she jumped right in, and we can’t wait for viewers to get to know her,” said Betsy Ayala, Head of Content, Food, Warner Bros. Discovery.

“This season has some of the fiercest cooking rounds we’ve ever seen, the audience will be on the edge of their seats.”

Fans can stay tuned for another season of the official digital companion series, where Bobby’s three titans make dishes inspired by each episode. Bobby’s Triple Threat is produced by Rock Shrimp Productions for Food Network and HBO Max.
