By Laura Rosenfeld

Top Chef Season 15 premieres on Thursday, December 7 at 10/9c. But guess what? This season's competition begins now with the return of Top Chef: Last Chance Kitchen. And that's just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to exciting news about the latest installment of this digital series. 

Prepare to have your mind blown, because this year's Last Chance Kitchen comes with a game-changing new twist that's also guaranteed to make you nostalgic. Four of the most legendary Top Chef veterans will return to battle it out in the hopes of scoring a spot in this season's competition in Colorado. 

So who's hoping to earn another shot at the Top Chef title? Last Chance Kitchen will welcome back Jennifer Carroll (Season 6 and Season 8: All Stars), Kwame Onwuachi (Season 13), Marcel Vigneron (Season 2 and Season 8: All Stars), and Lee Anne Wong (Season 1).

In each episode of Last Chance Kitchen, host Tom Colicchio will put these vets' culinary skills to the test in the toughest, fastest challenges you've ever seen. At the end of each episode, one chef will have to pack their knives and go.

But these vets won't just be competing against each other. Oh, no. They'll also face off with Season 15's new cheftestants as they are eliminated from the main competition each week. Just when you thought Top Chef couldn't get any more intense, it always does. 

Kick off a new season of Top Chef with the first episode of Last Chance Kitchen, above. New episodes of Last Chance Kitchen will be made available on Bravotv.com, the Bravo Now app, on demand, and on YouTube at the conclusion of each week's episode of Top Chef. 

Get ready for the epic premiere of Top Chef Season 15 on Wednesday, December 7 at 10/9c with a special sneak peek, below.
