Top Chef is reducing its serving size. And server size.

Bravo is catering its latest reality-competition series for the pint-size set, announcing plans to develop Top Chef Junior.

The network has ordered eight episodes for the spinoff of its haute cuisine hit, which will pit teens ages 13-16 against one another in a series of cooking competitions until one earns the title of junior Top Chef.

While there's no word yet on when the production will get cooking, the original Top Chef wraps up its fourth season tonight.
