He's baaaack. You might have noticed that Forage chef and co-owner Viet Pham had disappeared off the grid for a few weeks. --- Well, he's back, and he's been working on a Food Network TV show.

Pham -- who made a big splash as the near-winner (he came in 2nd place) of The Food Network's Extreme Chef last year -- will be one of the contestants on the ninth season of The Next Food Network Star.

One thing is certain: Rest assured that Pham will be the most fashionable chef on the show.

The Next Food Network Star premiers Sunday, June 2.
