Philly reps on 24 Hour Restaurant Battle

In February, we posted about a casting call for Food Network's 24 Hour Restaurant Battle, and asked any locals trying out to let us know. Turns out that a Philly couple made the cut. Lisa Fernandez, a full-time student and brain trauma clinician at the Philadelphia College of Medicine, and her boyfriend Zack Gaynor, a former manager at Maggiano's and Bahama Breeze, just finishing filming for the show, a restaurant-based competition between two teams of two. The episode — which we hear involves the couple serving the judges something involving Philly's own ROOT liquor — will air in late June or early July.
