Sara Bradley is back on TV in latest Food Network 'Tournament of Champions'

Paducah's favorite TV chef and local restauranteur is back on the airwaves in a new $150,000 cooking competition.

Food Network's "Tournament of Champions VII" debuted on Sunday night. Guy Fieri welcomed 32 world-class chefs going head-to-head in kitchen combat, including Bradley, who battled her way to the finals of last year's show.

Bradley has become a highly-regarded veteran of the television cooking wars. Her television career began in 2019 on Bravo's "Top Chef Kentucky," where she finished second. In 2023, she returned to "Top Chef World All-Stars" and was once again runner-up.

Along with TOC, she was a winner of Chopped: All-American Showdown and Chopped: Legends.

Because of her stellar TV record, Bradley is a No. 2 seed in the new show's March Madness-style tourney bracket. She did not compete during the first episode on Sunday.

Bradley opened Paducah's freight house in 2015 in a historic vegetable depot in downtown Paducah. The restaurant focuses on farm-to-table "new South" cuisine.
