Olivier Desaintmartin of Caribou Cafe and Zinc, recently inducted into the Maitres Cuisiniers de France, gets an hour on the tee-vee, Tuesday, June 21 (10 p.m.) on the Food Network series Chopped.

In typical reality-show vagueness, the description goes like this: “In the appetizer round, one chef rushes with less than two minutes left on the clock to plate all of the ingredients. The competitors give their entree dishes a kick with tequila, but a surprising ingredient inks away the competition. Then, one finalist second-guesses what to do with simple ingredients in the dessert basket.”

Desaintmartin’s competitors are three NYC-based chefs: Jonathan Doar (Fishtail by David Burke), Stephen Hartigan (No More Take Out), and Emily Sims (Ici in Brooklyn).

Judges are Amanda Freitag, Aarón Sanchez, and Geoffrey Zakarian.
