Season 21 of Bravo TV’s popular TV show “Top Chef” will have some new faces, but potentially some familiar sights as the show will reportedly be filmed in Milwaukee and Madison, but could have some Door County ties.
To what extent Door County will be involved in the show is still yet to be determined or announced. It was reported that the show is being produced with the partnership of the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation, and is cooperating with Travel Wisconsin, Travel Milwaukee, Destination Madison, Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin, and others, including Destination Door County.
Destination Door County was also unable to comment on how much Door County will be involved in the new season, but were able to state that “Destination Door County will be collaborating with the production of ‘Top Chef’ and are excited for what’s to come.”
The news of Door County somehow being involved with the show has reached Packers running back AJ Dillon, as he took to Twitter to express how he might be able to offer some help.
Hey @BravoTopChef, I know a thing or two about the door county food scene! I’d like to at least throw my hat in the ring for guest judge ???? https://t.co/EU8H1BZOid pic.twitter.com/jyrA6bzLSm
