‘Hell’s Kitchen’ Season 11 contestant profile: Gina Aloise

Bronx cook Gina Aloise has been named to the 20-contestant lineup for Season 11 of “Hell’s Kitchen,” celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay’s reality television cooking competition. The roster, revealed February 27, includes 10 female and 10 male chefs from across the United States.

The popular program returns March 12 on Fox TV with its eleventh season debut, opening with a signature dish competition filmed before a live Las Vegas audience.

Who is “Hell’s Kitchen” contestant Gina Aloise?

Forty-nine-year-old Aloise lives in Bronx, New York, where she works as a line cook. The “Hell’s Kitchen” Season 11 contestant’s signature dish is Penne Pasta with Meatballs and a Petit Braciola.

Premiering March 12 at 8 p.m. ET., the eleventh season of “Hell’s Kitchen” is themed “Get Out,” clearly quoting Ramsay’s oft-shouted phrase from every season of the show.

Aloise faces 19 other contestant cooks to compete for the coveted prize of a head chef position, under Executive Chef Jeremy Berlin at Gordon Ramsay Pub & Grill at Las Vegas’ Caesars Palace.
