Celebrating Pride With… Melissa King: Why The ‘Top Chef’ Winner Is ‘Completely Unapologetic’ About Living In Her ‘Truth
A very sweet and timely victory indeed. Melissa King, 36, bested 14 other fierce competitors to score the Top Chef: All Stars L.A. crown on Thursday, June 16. The California-based culinarian, who first appeared on Top Chef: Boston in 2014, was able to secure herself the title after beating two incredible talented competitors in Bryan Voltaggio (Top Chef: Las Vegas, Top Chef Masters) and Stephanie Cmar (Top Chef: New Orleans) in a very emotional finale that was filmed in Italy months before the Coronavirus pandemic took over (head judge Tom Colicchio and host Padma Lakshmi touched on that issue on the show’s 12th episode).
