The Chopping Block
The Chopping Block aired in 2009 on NBC with British chef and restaurateur Marco Pierre White as the culinary expert star.
Eight couples, split into two teams, were each given side-by-side Manhattan eating establishments. Each team then participated in various tasks and challenges related to the kitchen or front of house, and then opened their restaurant for service.
The team judged to have lost that service by Marco was eliminated. The last couple standing was the winner.
