ONE NIGHT. ONE CHEF. NO REPEATS.
Welcome to The Lineup —
A Community Focused Culinary Platform
The Lineup isn't just about what’s on the plate—it’s about who’s behind it. We champion emerging chefs, offering them a stage to showcase their vision and push the boundaries of dining.
Our flagship offering - The Lineup Dinner - is a one-night-only, community focused experience, crafted by a chef whose perspective and skill are too compelling to be overlooked.
By blending high-caliber events, media, and partnerships, we elevate the next wave of culinary innovators while offering audiences access to their stories, their food, and their journey.

In collaboration with the Visa Dining Collection by OpenTable x Visa, we are proudly announcing our final season of 2025 - The Lineup Dinner Season 8!
Our flagship dinner series will return in October and November, with three incredible chefs from some of New York’s most trusted and talked about restaurants.
Each chef will create a unique menu and pop-up concept that is wholly their own - everything from what’s on the plate to what’s on the walls. These aren’t just dinners. They are deeply personal expressions of craft, memory, and creativity.
Access to The Lineup Season 8 is available for eligible Visa credit cards.

FEATURING PAST TALENT FROM
CHEF SPOTLIGHT
INDIA DORIS - SEASON 3, EPISODE 1
India Doris embodies the spirit of The Lineup—driven, innovative, and deeply committed to her craft. As a participant in our third season, she showcased the kind of focus and talent we exist to elevate. With experience cooking in London and small towns across France and Spain, India honed her skills under Chef James Kent at Crown Shy and Saga, refining her approach to bold flavors backed by expert technique. Her cooking is a testament to the next generation of chefs: fearless, thoughtful, and always evolving.
Now, as she prepares to open Haymarket in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood, India is taking her vision to the next level. Partnering with collaborator Alex Pfaffenbach, Haymarket will have an accessible, fun, and expertly crafted menu, in a warm, contemporary space.
