Casting Call Looking For Chefs For Culinary Competition Show

There are tons of casting calls that come out weekly across the Hudson Valley. Many of them are looking for background actors or extras in whatever streaming service show is filming in the area at the time.

It's not every day that a reality show is filming in the Hudson Valley. Back in May of 2024, a casting call was posted looking for chefs for a culinary competition show.

Naturally, it would be filming at The Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park.
