Knife Fight Host Profile
Ilan Hall is an American chef who rose to fame upon winning Season 2 of Bravo’s reality show Top Chef. Originally from Great Neck, New York, Ilan Hall studied at the Culinary Institute of America before winning Top Chef.

Knife Fight Background
Season 3 of Knife Fight is sure to be the most captivating season yet. Now in an exciting New York location, the show takes place at Ilan Hall’s restaurant The Gorbals in Williamburg, Brooklyn. Furthermore, the new season has upped the stakes, now using a tournament style format.
In the Season 2 finale, the secret ingredient – crickets – was incorporated into dishes crafted by top New York chefs and business partners Wolfgang Ban and Edi Frauneder of Seasonal.
In the second season, the show became wildly popular, doubling the ratings in the key demographic of Adults aged 18 to 49.
This goes to show that the format and style of Knife Fight is as exciting as the name suggests, and the New York rendition is the best season to date. The Judges of Knife Fight are Kris Morningstar, Naomi Pomeroy and host Ilan Hall.
The concept that distinguished Knife Fight from other reality cooking shows is the speakeasy style, secret underground element of the show. In other words, this competition takes place in restaurants during their closing hours. They are given certain mandatory ingredients to include in their recipes. In the past, these have included jackfruit, pig’s head, and live catfish. In the first season, the show took place in Ilan Hall’s restaurant The Gorbals in the downtown area of Los Angeles. With the doors closed to the public, the restaurant lets in a gaggle of foodies, celebrities, and restaurant critics to watch the showdown of Knife Fight. The concept was originally modeled off of Chuck Palahniuk’s novel and subsequent film Fight Club, with a bunch of men meeting underground to fight each other. In this case, the fight is to cook at least two dishes in one hour that include the required ingredient.
