-- New Series Hosted By Chef and Food Enthusiast Adam Gertler Premieres Monday, June 10 at 10 PM E/P --

(Silver Spring, MD) - It's the perfect recipe for a night cap: one part hungry bar-goers, two parts finger-lickin' food, a dash of great everyday cooks, with a Golden Fry Basket to garnish. It all adds up to a mouth-watering plateful of Destination America's newest competition series, LAST CALL FOOD BRAWL, hosted by Adam Gertler, a runner-up for Next Food Network Star and all-around food enthusiast. Each episode visits a different American city to challenge four cooks, hailing from 24-hour diners to mom and pop eateries, in a cook-off to determine who will be crowned the king or queen of late night bites. The food brawls attract a raucous audience hungry for munchies that are salty and sweet, like deep fried bacon chili cheeseburger and peanut butter s'more french toast. LAST CALL FOOD BRAWL heads to some of the biggest late night cities in the U.S. to indulge in each town's local flavor, including New Orleans, Austin, Memphis, Nashville and Atlanta. Each week, only one contestant will win the coveted Golden Fry Basket!

"There's nothing better than hanging out with friends and wishing the night would never end... then keeping the fun going at your favorite late night food stop for a gooey grilled cheese, and maybe a side of disco fries." said, Marc Etkind, SVP of Content Strategy for Destination America. "With LAST CALL FOOD BRAWL, our intrepid host Adam Gertler is on a mission to find talented everyday deep fry warriors in the most fun-filled cities to serve up the best in late night and comfort food --taken to epic proportions."
