If people weren’t previously aware, Liya Chu may announce that she has been named the next MasterChef Junior.

The conclusion, which was gripping and often nerve-wracking, aired on June 23. The 13-year-old, who was 10 when she taped the Fox cookery show, was declared the winner.

The eighth season of the program, which just ended, follows 16 young chefs from all around the country, ranging in age from 8 to 13, as they face various culinary obstacles. Chefs Gordon Ramsay, Aarón Sánchez, and author and health advocate Daphne Oz served as judges for this season.

Liya Chu MasterChef Junior parents: Meet Iwen Chen and Auston Chu

Iwen Chen and Auston Chu are the parents of Chu.

Since the first episode of the show aired on March 17, the owners of Fantasy Cuisine in Hartsdale and Dumpling Plus Noodle in Bronxville claim that customers have been enquiring about Liya’s whereabouts and when she plans to arrive.

The Scarsdale, New York resident won $100,000 in prize money, which she intends to use to pay for college. She also earned a trip with her family, bragging rights, a trophy, and a highly sought-after apron.

Without my family, I wouldn’t have gained as much knowledge or even begun to cook in the first place, she claimed. I genuinely want to help them, so I say.
