Hosted by best-selling cookbook author and successful restaurateur Guy Fieri, Grocery Games is set in a grocery store where four talented chefs compete against each other through three cooking challenges, as they must navigate their way through the aisles adhering to a number of “real-world” culinary challenges to create tasty dishes. The chefs must rely on their improvisation, gamesmanship and culinary skills for a chance to win up to $20,000.
The local challenge will take place on Saturday, November 9 at 1:00pm at The Fresh Market, located at 1205 Johnson Ferry Road, Marietta, GA 30068.
