This season, "Top Chef" goes international, with 16 chefs representing 11 global editions competing for the title of world all-star in London. When Tom Colicchio joined "Top Chef" nearly two decades ago, he had no idea that the culinary competition, which airs Thursday nights on Bravo, would reach this scale.
"When we first started shooting, I thought maybe we'd get a couple seasons, and family and friends would watch, and then that was about it," Colicchio said on "Salon Talks." "We had no idea that it would turn into what it turned into."
