Francis Lam from "Top Chef Masters" is one of the judges on the Bravo reality cooking competition series. He joined the series in Season 4.
With Francis Lam as the features editor at Gilt Taste, the site was awarded four IACP awards and three James Beard award nominations in its first year. He provides color commentary for the Cooking Channel show Food(ography). His own writing has been nominated for a James Beard award and three IACP awards, winning one, but he knows all this talk of awards is a little tacky. In past lives, he was a senior writer at Salon.com, a contributing editor at Gourmet magazine (RIP), and his work has appeared in the 2006 - 2011 editions of Best Food Writing. He believes that, in professional football, that would count as a dynasty; in ancient China, not so much.
Lam resides in New York City.
