MasterChef US Returning For Season 14
MasterChef US is back for a new season and there are some big names in the judging chairs this time around. As expected, Gordon Ramsay is back. He is the biggest name for fans watching at home. However, he has some people around him that are just as important.
Gordon Ramsay is a British celebrity chef who has several restaurants of his own. He recently opened branches in Oklahoma, Miami, and London. Ramsay even had to deal with squatters recently at his London restaurant. He also currently stars on Food Stars alongside Lisa Vanderpump.
Joe Bastianich is an author and hotelier who owns 30 restaurants across four countries. This includes the famous Los Angeles restaurant Osteria Mozza.
Aarón Sánchez is an author, chef, restaurateur and philanthropist. He is the founder of the Aarón Sánchez Impact Fund, a nonprofit program aimed at uplifting the lives of Latino youth through food.
Also joining the three judges are culinary expert guest judges brought on this season to evaluate their generation: Priya Krishna for millennials, Lidia Bastianich for Boomers, Nick DiGiovanni for Gen Z, and Christina Ha for Gen X.
New MasterChef Season A Generational Battle
The big change this season is that MasterChef US is a battle between the generations. The first episode saw contestants qualifying as millennials (1980-1994). The next episodes will bring in the boomers (1946-1964), Gen X (1965-1979), and Gen Z (1995-2009) competitors
The guest judges will know the gaps between the generations as the home chefs will compete for the title of MasterChef champion and the $250,000 prize. As for the differences between the three groups, each of the guest judges had something to say about their generation.
Priya Krishna said millennials were ruining everything, but she said they were the one generation that actually defied stereotypes and created something different. The boomers are all about tradition, according to Lidia Bastianich. Lidia said they are all about doing things right and not experimenting as much as millennials.
As for Gen X, the latchkey generation, Christina Ha said they had to survive by learning how to do things themselves at a young age. They didn’t have cheats like TikTok and YouTube and they had to figure out things out on their own.
For Gen Z, Nick DiGiovanni said that his generation had everything they needed to learn how to be the best at things thanks to things like TikTok and YouTube.
