Bravo is sending its customized “Top Chef” 18-wheeler around the country, and it will stop at JFK Plaza on May 30 with chefs Jennifer Carroll of Philly facing her Season 6 rival Eli Kirshstein of Atlanta in a series of cooking battles in front of a panel of judges and audience members.

Shows will start at 10:30 a.m., noon and 1:30 p.m. It's free to watch.

In addition to the battles, people can participate in on-site activities, including: a “Top Chef”-themed Cornhole Toss; Tip the Scale, where fans will be tasked with putting items in order of weight; and a “Top Chef” Horseshoe Toss.

I gotta ask, what's a cornhole toss. It does not sound like something I would want to participate.
