Why win one Food Network culinary competition when you can take a shot at winning two? Naples chef and owner of Bicyclette Cookshop Kayla Pfeiffer has already won “Chopped,” but didn’t hesitate to take on another TV cooking challenge. This time, it’s a brand new show led by none other than the mayor of Flavortown, Guy Fieri.
“Flavortown Food Fight” sends chefs headfirst into Flavortown, Fieri’s fictional culinary world. Competitors start by participating in a skills challenge, followed by two rounds of cooking challenges to earn cash. Though all contestants can earn cash, only the final winner will take it home. Two judges will determine which chef moves on and which chef goes home each episode. Episode winners can earn up to $20,000 across the challenges and will return to face new competitors the following week. There’s no limit to the amount of wins a player can achieve.
Pfeiffer will compete on the series premiere episode on Wednesday, March 4, 2026, at 9 p.m. If you can’t catch the episode live tonight, it’ll be available to stream next-day on HBO Max and discovery+.
In addition to her national television appearance, Pfeiffer is preparing to open her second brick-and-mortar restaurant: Heyday Cookshop, an ambitious new chef residency concept designed to encourage collaboration in the kitchen.
