Casting call for new Food Network show, 24 Hour Restaurant Battle

Seeking: two person teams with pre-existing relationships (brother and sister, mother and son, husband and wife, etc.) who would love the chance to prove that they can run a restaurant. They should be a dynamic front of house and back of house duo. One person on the team will run the front of the house and the other person on the team will be the chef and run the kitchen. All levels of experience (culinary school trained to home cook, little or no restaurant experience to a lifelong career in restaurants) will be considered. We�re looking for lots of energy and charisma!

The New York casting call
When: Friday, February 12, 10 am to 3 pm
Where: Professor Thoms located at 219 2nd Avenue NYC.

TIP: Students/Alumni should either get there very early (8am) or just wait until 2:30pm to come to the open call. The earlier you arrive, the sooner you'll be seen but if you arrive anywhere past 9am, you'll end up waiting all day...which means it makes sense just to come back at 2:30pm, because you'll still be seen.
