On the night of Sunday May 15 to Monday May 16, 2022, in Paris, Thomas Chisholm was assaulted shortly after midnight. The former candidate Top chef (2021) was near the Grand Palais, in the chic 7th arrondissement, on the occasion of the culinary event Taste of Paris, in which he participated with his teams.
