Photo Flash: First Look at ABC's New Competition Show THE TASTE

THE TASTE, a new one-hour alternative series from Kinetic Content will premiere in 2013 on the ABC Television Network, featuring superstar food judges Anthony Bourdain, Nigella Lawson, Brian Malarkey, and Ludo Lefebvre. Check out a first look at the judges below!

On "The Taste," each of the four culinary superstars - Bourdain, Lawson, Lefebvre and Malarkey -- will coach a team of four competing pro and amateur cooks chosen from a nationwide casting call as they vie to create the best tasting dish. In each episode, the groups will face team and individual challenges with a variety of culinary themes through several elimination rounds. At the end of each episode, the Mentors will have to judge the competitors' dishes blind, with no knowledge of whose creation they're sampling, what they're eating, how it was prepared or whom they could be eliminating.
