    Top Chef travels westward for season six, stopping in Las Vegas to take advantage of the top restaurants and restaurateurs located throughout the city, and use its atmosphere and colorful locations to inspire some of the hardest challenges that t     the contestants have ever seen. Seventeen of the best new chefs from around the country will battle it out for the title of Top Chef, but Sin City will affect both the challenges and the prizes, upping the stakes considerably.
