Season 0 · Rochester & Buffalo

Eight slots.
Five seats.

Season 0 is a closed pilot — no entry fee, no purse, and a rulebook meant to outlast it. Four entrant slots from Monroe County, four from Erie, and a five-judge panel that will have its names published before anyone tastes anything.

Season 0 fills four slots from each county. Elsewhere in WNY goes on the Season 1 list.

Two trade seats, two experienced consumers, one from outside the industry.

Disclosed conflicts don't disqualify you. Undisclosed ones do.

21+ only. We use this to fill Season 0 and nothing else — no list rental, no newsletter you didn't ask for. Season 0 has no entry fee.
