Masterchef Ecuador (Teleamazonas) has just given us the winner of its third and final season. This is the publicist from Guayaquil, Andrés Arrata, who not only set the bar very high for his colleagues in the final of the cooking competition, but also won the affection of many of the viewers who furiously wanted the contestant to win the victory of this edition.
It is that one of the side effects of the program is to receive a wave of popularity that can be used in multiple ways. This is also apparently being experienced by those who were the winners of the two previous installments.
Who is Andrés Arrata?, the charismatic winner of the third season of Masterchef Ecuador
Season 1, Beto Larco
for the Quito Beto Larco, winner of the first season, his exposure earned him collaboration with several food brands, as well as being a figure in some campaigns. He even appeared in a short video along with President Guillermo Lasso preparing a tigrillo in the company of the First Lady.
He also created an online channel on Youtube, Don Beto Fogón and Tradition, in which he shared until 10 months ago the step by step of his favorite recipes in the spectrum of traditional Ecuadorian food. All this from his home in Lago Agrio, Sucumbíos, where he settled to work as a civil builder.
In June 2020, six months after the broadcast of his triumph in the Masterchef kitchens, Beto starred in a protest and complaint against the channel’s production, for alleged illegalities in the contract that sealed his participation. According to the amateur cook, the signed document limited his job search; he also considered that she had exploited her image after the contest, without receiving compensation in return.
From what is seen on social networks, Beto, who entered the competition when he was 26 years old, is dedicated to his family. In November he welcomed his second daughter and has just celebrated his third month of life. The conclusion of his complaint against Teleamazonas.
Loren Trocelier from Ambato and Angie Macklif from Guayaquil stood out with him, in second and third place respectively.
Loren currently resides in Canada. He also profiled himself on Youtube with his recipes, although in one of his videos he clarified that his account had been hacked. For this reason he is more active on Instagram @loren_trocellier. Angie, instead, moved to the United States.
Season 2, Roberto Ayala
Robert Ayala, the winner of the second edition, stole sighs no more than 10 days ago, when he visited the stations of Masterchef Ecuador prior to the outcome of what was the last season. The inevitable tweets that accompanied each of the broadcasts of the reality show chefs that day were turned on by his burly and inspiring presence on the show as a special guest.
Few can forget Roberto because his image and especially his seasoning continue to captivate his loyal fans and even new ones. He premiered his Clandestine Cuisine, a gastronomic laboratory that makes its tasty preparations available to the public at home. The experience is only available in Quito.
Those who were his companions, colleagues and at the same time opponents on the podium of the final of the second edition are also actively offering culinary experiences for the most varied palates.
