odel-cookbook author Chrissy Teigen is to team up with American restaurateur David Chang, who is famous for establishing Momofuku restaurant group, to host a cooking show that marks the birth of streaming platform Hulu’s first food-focused program.
Independent reports that the content of the show will be co-created by Vox Media Studios, Chang’s Majordomo Media and Teigen’s Suit and Thai Productions.
Chang was quoted by Independent as saying that he hoped to keep integrating new perspectives into the content, sharing stories about culture and bringing change to the current idea of a food television show’s capability.
“I think there’s an audience out there that understands and celebrates the world through food, and they’re hungry for shows that feed their sense of curiosity in new ways,” said Chang.

Besides the cooking show, Teigen curates and produces original programming from scripted drama series to talk shows, Hollywood Reporter wrote. (sop/mut)
