Celebrity chef Tom Colicchio, a familiar face to Top Chef devotees, is back with a second helping of The Pantry, now streaming on VIZIO WatchFree+. This isn’t just another cooking show; it’s a chance to glean culinary wisdom from a master, along with some notable guest chefs, all from the comfort of your couch. Premiering Friday, November 9, 2023, the new season offers six 25-minute episodes, each a bite-sized morsel of kitchen know-how.
Joining Colicchio in the Pantry this time around are culinary luminaries like Gail Simmons, Rocco DiSpirito, and Amanda Freitag. Each episode focuses on equipping viewers with essential cooking skills and insights into stocking a well-functioning kitchen. But The Pantry isn’t content with just showing; it wants you to do. Through handy QR codes, viewers can directly purchase the ingredients and even the professional-grade equipment used in each episode. If you’ve ever wanted to emulate the pros, now’s your chance.
Colicchio, beyond his stern Top Chef persona, emphasizes the core principle of cooking as an act of love, meant to be shared. The Pantry reflects this philosophy, aiming to foster a sense of connection through the simple pleasure of creating and enjoying meals together. For those who missed out on the inaugural season—featuring guests like Marcus Samuelsson, Kristen Kish, and the surprisingly culinary-inclined Liev Schreiber—it’s readily available on-demand on WatchFree+.
So, if you’re looking to up your cooking game, or simply enjoy watching a seasoned chef at work, The Pantry is worth a taste. All you need is a free VIZIO account to access WatchFree+, which isn’t a high bar to clear. New episodes of The Pantry will be released through Friday, December 8, 2023 on the Fork & Flight channel and on-demand on VIZIO WatchFree+.
The Pantry is a Spirits Network original series produced by NBTV Studios.
