SAN FRANCISCO, June 5, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Eatwith, the world's largest community for authentic culinary experiences with locals, and Endemol Shine North America, the producers of the hit culinary competition MasterChef airing Wednesdays (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX, have announced their continued partnership to organize contestant-hosted events around the country.

Contestants from this year's season 10, as well as from previous seasons 1-9, will host exclusive dinners, food tours and cooking classes in US cities like San Francisco, Chicago, New York, Atlanta and more. Season 10 contestants will join the Eatwith platform as they are eliminated from MasterChef's top 20, giving fans the opportunity to book their seat with their favorite straight after the show.

To celebrate the milestone 10th season, Eatwith will also be holding exclusive MasterChef pop-up events with contestants in New York and San Francisco. Tickets for both the pop-ups and Eatwith MasterChef experiences will be available on Eatwith at www.eatwith.com/masterchefus.

"We are thrilled to extend our MasterChef 10th season celebration to fans all across the country with our partners at Eatwith," said Tamaya Petteway, Senior Vice President, Brand and Licensing Partnerships, Endemol Shine North America. "Shortly after the top contestants from our milestone 10th season leave the MasterChef kitchen, they will be serving up exclusive dinners, food tours, cooking classes and participate in helping us launch the first-ever MasterChef pop-up events in both New York and San Francisco."

"Being on MasterChef  was the opportunity of a lifetime and a dream come true," said MasterChef contestant and Eatwith host Brien O'Brien. " While my time on MasterChef is over, being an Eatwith host allows that dream to continue and lets fans across the world experience what only the judges have.  It's an exciting opportunity for not just the fans, but also us MasterChefs contestants!"
