"It's a show that really pushes the limit as far as creativity, and I get inspired by that."

Welcome Chef Eric Adjepong:

We’re joined on the Starline by a chef, TV personality, author and Save the Children ambassador. You’ve seen him on Alex vs America, Chopped, Top Chef and more. If you got the hustle, he has the game.  We welcome host of “Wildcard Kitchen” on Food Network Chef Eric Adjepong.

Eric, let’s go Beyond the Mic. Wildcard Kitchen is 3 chefs betting their own money with your twisted culinary deck of cards. Why does this show challenge others in a new and fun way?

Even though it’s taped in the Food Network kitchens after hours so it has a fight club feel…

Eric, which wild card was too easy in your mind so far and which was too hard?

The ice cream machine is always a brutal test. How has this game helped elevate your own cooking and would you step in for an episode?

The Rockin' 8:

It’s time for the Rockin’ 8, it’s MY game, 8 random questions, answer with the first thing that comes to your mind. There is no Pressure.

1. What’s your daughter Lennox’s favorite type of pancake to make?

2. Do you have a name for your 1st cookbook yet?

3. One dish you haven’t mastered yet?

4. Place you love to go to clear your mind?

5. Person you haven’t cooked with but would love to?

6. What’s the one (non-knife) item you have to have in the kitchen, no matter what?

7. Favorite meal, breakfast, lunch or dinner?

8. Best place on the Providence campus?

One Big Question:

You believe in giving back supporting children’s charities. If you could snap your fingers and solve one world issue for children, what is it?

Why should people watch Wildcard Kitchen?

The Wrap:

Eric Adjepong loves a lumberjack breakfast, needs cardamom and nutmeg in pancakes and wants you to watch Wildcard Kitchen on the Food Network. Eric thanks for taking the time to talk with us today
