Franziska Diaz – Big Winner “Hell’s Kitchen”… The last broadcast in SIC format took place this Sunday, June 6, and brought 16 participants in the kitchen of Lubomir Stanisic to help the two finalists achieve victory.
The 29-year-old chef made it to the finals with Lucas and had to lead his teams to ensure that the dishes were prepared in time to open the restaurant. For dinner, Lubomir invited such famous people as Julia Pinheiro, Bento Rodrigues or Barbara Guimaraes.
“It was very difficult for me [escolher o vencedor]… Francisca’s service was organized, but Lucas’s team began to lag behind. (…) Francisca became the winner of the first “Hell’s Kitchen”, ”said Lubomyr when he announced the winner.
During the first broadcast of the program at the Paço de Arcos station, the chef of the 100 Maneiras restaurant did not spare Franziska’s praise. He distinguished himself by presenting Lubomir with several dishes, such as raya, which he prepared with great skill, or scar-kebabs, which left the chef in awe.
Franziska worked at Feitoria, the Altis Belém restaurant in Lisbon, but ended up not seeing her contract renewal due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Last March, João Rodrigues, the restaurant’s chef, told MAGG that the chef has always been hardworking. “I foresee a great future for you,” he said.
Franziska not only won the title of winner of the first edition of Hell’s Kitchen and headed the restaurant team of the chef, but also won the taste of many who followed her path. “Cisca Massala” is a homemade jam and seasoning project that started the night Francisca and his wife Tanya were battling insomnia.
