Former Alinea Group chef Natalia "Boa" Rosario was the winner of season one of Ciao House. In addition to his long history in the food industry, Gabriele co-hosted the Netflix wedding series Say I Do. The Italian-born chef lives in Venice Beach, California, where he manages four Los Angeles catering companies.
Who won season 1 of Ciao House?
The deliberations were awkward, just the chefs standing around in the dirt and turning to each other and then turning back around to cast their votes out loud. Among the challenging and delicious events the “Ciao House” contestants will go through are a three-course truffle and wine pairing, a visit to an Italian cheese cave and creating a wild boar dish. The eight-episode first season of the competition aired on Food Network’s linear channel from April 16 to June 4 and streams on Discovery+ and Max. Three restaurants that the family is said to have eaten at this year claim they have collectively lost around £800. The group enters and awes at the entryway of the yellow estate with tall, domed ceilings and original frescos. Rather than sizing up the competition, the contestants take in the villa.

I believe pop culture can both entertain and affect us, and so reality blurred’s goal is to amplify the best and hold the worst accountable. In other words, let’s call out the worst, celebrate the best, and talk about it all. The writing here is the start of a conversation, and reality blurred values your contributions to that conversation. We’ve created a community that connects people through open and thoughtful conversations about the TV we’re watching, the pop culture we’re consuming, and the stories about it. Food Network has renewed its new Italian cooking competition “Ciao House,” hosted by Alex Guarnaschelli and Gabriele Bertaccini, for a second season. An exclusive clip of the new series (above), which premieres on Sunday, April 16, shows the 14th century Tuscan villa located in Borgo San Lorenzo where it all takes place.

However, the choice to focus on manufactured drama and nastiness instead of the joy and beauty of Italy and Italian cuisine is just sad. There is far too much nastiness and divisiveness in our world today - stop adding to it. Whoever wins after all that—whether it’s Saba continuing to dominate or Corey coming back from the dead to win—good for them, and my deepest regrets that they had to go through this to get there.
There's also a new standup special from Nikki Glaser—Someday You'll Die (May 11) covers topics like aging and sexual fantasies—and two film projects from production house A24. "The kitchen is amazing. It makes you feel like you are in someone's grandmother's kitchen," says sous chef Omar from Avenel, New Jersey with a laugh. The 10-bedroom, 10-bathroom estate features Renaissance details and space for the contestants and crew. The inside is impressive but the contestants step outside into the expansive backyard (with a massive pool!) and are equally in awe of the grounds.

Instead of leaning in to the joy and experience of living together in Tuscany, and experiencing its food and locations, Ciao House took that away from the chefs, and stuck them into this wreck of a show. In the finale itself, there will be “a cooking duel to see which previously eliminated chef will earn a spot in the finale” and its “winner will join the other two finalists to cook one last meal,” Food Network said. All of Ciao House was unnecessarily structured around creating that kind of artificial drama, instead of giving more time and attention to the chef’s work, and everything that surrounded them.
The reality cooking show sees the competitors go through different cooking challenges until one person is left standing. Today, it’s home to a wide range of writing about entertainment rooted in real life, from competition reality shows to true-crime documentaries, and a vibrant community of pop culture fans. Our warm and welcoming authentic Italian restaurant is now next door to an impressive plaza with an unbeatable offering of traditional Italian dishes and multiple dining atmospheres. Our Italian Marketplace includes wood-fired pizza, a wide selection of wine in the Enoteca, house made gelato, Italian pastries, imported and house made deli items, and a large banquet hall for private events. Ciao is the best place in North County for those who want to experience true Italian hospitality and culture.

Everything Coming To and Leaving Max in January 2024
Then, the chefs were tested based on those lessons, preparing meals for Alex and Gabe, and for each other. They all sat around a wood table and ate together, tasting and commenting on each other’s dishes. Aptly titled “Ciao House,” the “Big Brother”-meets-“Under the Tuscan Sun” competition, hosted and judged by network vet Alex Guarnaschelli and Tuscan-born chef Gabriele Bertaccini, premieres Sunday, April 16 at 9 p.m. On the linear Food Network channel and streams the same day on Discovery+.
When even the show’s own contestants are blaming themselves, that’s a signal that the format doesn’t work. Survivor players certainly struggle with decisions and relationships, but they know they’re there to compete based on strategy, not talent. This format flaw opened up a dam that allowed a torrent of the Internet’s misogyny. At the end of episode five, Sarah and Saba voted Corey out of their three-person team—because that was the best move.
The competing chefs drive up to their new home and are immediately impressed. Alex has a long history as a judge on hit cooking competition shows Iron Chef and Chopped. With just eight episodes and 10 chefs, Ciao House could have used this format. From the way Ciao House was presented, I expected a format similar to Netflix’s School of Chocolate, on which pastry chefs also competed in teams, judged by Amaury Guichon.
Located on the outskirts of San Diego County, in a quiet part of Vista, Ciao Ristorante Italiano is one of the area’s finest Italian Restaurants complete with two chefs, a full bar, and an elegant Mediterranean ambiance . As a second generation family business, Ciao is focused on upholding traditional values and high service standards. Whether it is for a romantic dinner, a private event, or to pick up a tray of pasta, our guests always leave satisfied.
Cut to Sarah crying, and then buying into this very dumb argument, saying she made it to episode six with “a bit more strategy and luck than out-chefing my peers.” Of course you did! Instead, as I wrote in my review of the premiere, it sent home one person for a nonsensical reason, and then just got worse from there.
As per Food Network, "Each episode’s culinary challenges are steeped in tradition and the competitors must also navigate alliances and rivalries as they pick their own teams and each week, the losing team must vote off one of their own." It was supposed to be a show based on talent, but the best chefs were voted off, still scratching me head. Alex admits in the last episode that Corey is the best chef and consistently the best through the entire show.
After posting the clip, other restaurants came forward to allege they had also been targeted by the group. The alleged dine-and-dash video, featuring the accused family, was posted to Bella Ciao’s social media pages and received more than 12 million views. Restaurants have publicly accused one family of targeting establishments within a 30-mile radius, claiming there were up to eight people eating large meals and then leaving without payment.
