Top Chef Mexico premieres on February 18 on NBC Universo at 9P. Hosted by actress Ana Claudia Talancón, the 13 episode reality competition television series is based on Bravo’s international franchise Top Chef.
I had the great pleasure of talking to Ana Claudia and well-known chef, Aquiles Chavez, who is one of four chef judges on the show.
I asked Chavez about his tattoos and he talked about the meaning of three of them, which represent his restaurants.
Listen in on our conversation about their love of food and cooking; and what they would like for the show—a culinary competition that takes viewers on a gastronomical tour throughout México.
The other world-renowned chef judges on the show are Guillermo González Beristáin, Martha Ortíz, and Juantxo Sánchez.
