Ladies and gentlemen, here's your first glance at Anthony Bourdain and Nigella Lawson's upcoming ABC culinary competition show, The Taste. Details garnered from this preview: the four "mentors" — Lawson, Bourdain, Ludo Lefebvre and Brian Malarkey — taste a single bite of food before meeting the person who made it. That person may be a professional or might not be. (The mentors won't know, and, as Lawson puts it, "We won't even care." So there.) There also appear to be some sort of box/containment cell situation where they keep the chefs/cooks/whatever until it's time. Also, the contestants are called "kitchenistas." Kitchenistatestpants? The show premieres January 22 with a two hour episode; watch the four previews below. (There's a lot of overlap in terms of the clips used, but they're all vaguely different.) Jump on it:
