The end of Top Chef D.C. doesn't necessarily mean the end of local flavor on Bravo. For their upcoming series Top Chef: Just Desserts, the network has cast not just a chef from D.C., but one who works right here in Georgetown.
That contestant is Heather Chittum, a 37-year-old pastry chef at Georgetown's own Hook and Tackle Box restaurants. DCist reports that Chittum has "a very D.C. bio."
"She worked on the Hill and then for a national non-profit before enrolling in culinary school," writes Josh Novikoff. "She's served as pastry chef at several restaurants around town, including the famed Citronelle. In 2008, Chittum won the RAMMY for Pastry Chef of the Year and was named by Gayot as one of the top 5 pastry chefs in the nation."
Good luck, Chittum. From the preview video Bravo released, which you can watch above, it looks like you're about to enter a world of sugary drama.
