NEW YORK � May 14, 2009 � Production has begun this May on a new season of Dinner: Impossible, it was announced today by Food Network. Slated to premiere in August 2009, the series will shoot 13 new episodes throughout the spring and challenge chef Robert Irvine to overcome a new batch of culinary obstacles.

A marvel in the kitchen, Robert overcomes culinary obstacles on Dinner: Impossible. Every Wednesday at 10pm ET/PT, he accepts a variety of missions like an extreme dinner for 200 Winter X Games athletes, preparing odd but tasty combinations of food for 450 Yahoo! employees or taking a gamble on a mission at the renowned casino at Mohegan Sun. Can he complete the task before time runs out or will it be Dinner: Impossible?

As part of his service, he worked on board the Royal Yacht Britannia where the Royal Family and their entourages regularly dined. In addition, Robert participated in a guest chef program, allowing him to cook at the White House. In his 25 year-long career, he had the opportunity to serve 6,000 servicemen and women on a US aircraft carrier and plan the menu at a spectacular celebrity-studded after-party at the Academy Awards. Robert also wrote a cookbook entitled "Mission: Cook!" (Harper Collins, 2007). He currently owns his own multi-faceted company, The Irvine Group.
