In Battle of the Decades, three teams take on a series of challenges for the chance to make it to the final round. In round one it is all about nostalgia as host Jonathan Bennett reveals the contents of a time capsule which includes mandatory ingredients and a cooking gadget from a particular year that must be used in the first dish. The chefs will have to employ everything from an electric grill to a fondue pot to accomplish their missions. In round two, the remaining teams have to put their own spin on viral food trends like smiley fries and spicy vodka pasta. Then, in round three, the final team standing must face off against each other to create their version of a timeless dish like Chicken Kiev and Beef Wellington, for the ultimate test of the decades. In the end, only one chef will walk away with $10,000.
There is no Next Episode of Battle of the Decades planned.
S1E6 - 2004 Is So Fetch!
On Wednesdays host Jonathan Bennett wears pink and will never stop trying to make "fetch" happen thanks to 2004's cult classic "Mean Girls." He tasks the chefs with making pizza rolls, a raw bison burger patty and Budweiser work in one cohesive dish ... all without overusing the beer's iconic Super Bowl catchphrase. In round two, the chefs create two very different interpretations of viral corn ribs, while the remaining two competitors try to impress judges Kathy Fang and Peter Fang in a battle of crepes Suzette.

S1E7 - Furiously Fast Food
In 1988, we were all singing "Tell It To My Heart" at the top of our lungs, including the one and only Taylor Dayne. She and host Jonathan Bennett turn their memories of the '80s into a unique challenge for the chefs involving Kit-Kats, Sunny D and a rib sandwich. Then, the chefs create their own viral-worthy version of Gigi Hadid's Spicy Vodka Pasta, and judges Julian and Beto Rodarte decide who's beef bourguignon will take the prize.

S1E8 - Soup Is Good Food!

Then, it's smiles all around as the competitors take on the smiley fries food trend before judges Antonia Lofaso and Xea Myers decide which chef's cioppino is a real winner.
