Lana Lagomarsini stars in a brand new Netflix series Pressure Cooker. The show is the first-ever house reality cooking contest.

She is one of the 11 accomplished chefs who go head to head in the competition. There aren’t any judges on Pressure Cooker, the pressure is certainly going to be felt among the cast as they have to judge one another’s dishes.

The Netflix show, which dropped on January 6, also sees the chefs living in the same house. The heat is turned up for the contestants as there’s a $100,000 prize waiting for the winner.
