Heidi Montag attends the the grand opening of the Lemon Basket Restaurant on May 11, 2011 in West Hollywood, California. This is the start up restauarant for the VH1 reality show she's been filming with Danielle Staub, Vincent Pastore and Jake Pavelka. 'Famous Foods' premieres on Vh1 on Sunday, July 10 at 10PM ET.

Talk about a recipe for major drama!
Heidi Montag is set to make her return to reality TV with VH1's Famous Food, scheduled to premiere this fall, according to an official announcement from the network Wednesday.
Joining the plastic surgery-obsessed former Hills star for the series, which will give seven celebs the chance to open their own West Hollywood restaurant? Former Bachelor star Jake Pavelka, Real Housewives of New Jersey villain Danielle Staub, musicians DJ Paul and Juicy "J," singer (and former Eliot Spitzer call girl) Ashley Dupre and The Sopranos' Vincent Pastore.
Going into the one-hour, 10 episode series, Montag knows a thing or two about what it takes to operate a restaurant. Her parents' Crested Butte, Colo., eatery shut its doors last fall after 21 years in business. Montag's mother, Darlene Egelhoff, currently cleans houses as a maid in her hometown.

On Famous Food, Los Angeles restauranteurs Mike Malin (a former Big Brother cast member) and Lonnie Moore, of The Dolce Group, will assess the cast as they complete renovation tasks, craft a menu and hire staff in the hopes of opening a flourishing eatery.

Here's a few more details about the new reality show Heidi will be participating in.
It's for VH1 and six "stars" (Heidi, Jake Pavelka, Danielle Staub, Vincent Pastore, DJ Paul and Ashley Dupree) will be competing for six weeks against one another. They will attempt to turn an empty space into the hottest Hollywood nightclub/restaurant in LA and the winner will walk away with an amazing opportunity!
“At the end of the six weeks they will be judged before a panel of the nightlife investors,” our source tells us exclusively. “And one celebrity will be chosen to get a stake and ownership in the restaurant.”
Sounds like a mix between Kitchen Nightmares and Celebrity Apprentice!
VH1 has yet to comment.

This may become one crowded kitchen.
Heidi Montag, Jake Pavelka, Danielle Staub and other reality alumni are all going into the food business together for an upcoming series that places some big personalities under heavy pressure, PEOPLE has learned.
"They are revamping a restaurant from the ground up," says a source on the set of the new reality series, slated to air on VH1. "They started shooting this past weekend."
On the show, the cast will be tasked with opening a restaurant in just 28 days.
The stars, who filmed Tuesday at Café Med in West Hollywood, have remained tight-lipped, with Staub announcing on Twitter: "I'm working on a project. Let you know soon what and with whom!! Xxoo."
Pavelka also tweeted Tuesday, "Crazy fun day of shooting!"

Spotted: Heidi Montag having lunch and filming some sort of reality show at Cafe Med. With her was the motley crew of Jake “The Bachelor” Pavelka, Danielle "Real Housewives" Staub, Vincent "The Sopranos" Pastore, Ashlee Dupree (former call girl in the Eliot Spizer scandal) and DJ Paul. The Rumours are running rampant that this is the cast of Celebrity Rehab 5 but that seems unlikely to me, especially considering that Heidi was just playing peek a boo with Spencer and the Paparazzi yesterday. There has also been some speculation that they're filming a celebrity cooking show. I'm loathe to admit it but I'm curious to see how Heidi does on her own in whatever format.
