The second season of the culinary reality show ‘Chef de Alto Nível’ premiered on TV Globo on October 13. Hosted by Ana Maria Braga, the competition features 24 participants divided into three categories: professional cooks, internet personalities, and amateurs, competing for a R$ 700,000 prize.

Under the artistic direction of Carlo Milani, three mentors—Alex Atala, Renata Vanzetto, and Jefferson Rueda—each lead a team of six members. While technical scoring remains the responsibility of the mentors, Braga will take a more active role in commenting on the dishes during this season. The competition tests technical skills and adaptability across three different kitchen environments.

Among the contestants is Bruno dos Santos, a nutritionist from Rio Grande do Norte, who intends to incorporate regional culinary traditions into his cooking.
