Scripps Networks Interactive has announced its first pan-regional original commission for Latin America with Destino Con Sabor.



Hosted by Venezuelan chef Grace Ramirez, Destino Con Sabor will explore the food, cultural traditions and heritage across Latin America. Destino Con Sabor, 16x30’, is due to premiere on Food Network across the region in spring 2016.

“We are focused on growing our slate of original productions in Latin America, creating local content that resonates with the regional audience,” said Adriana Alcantara, VP of marketing and production, Latin America, Scripps. “Destino Con Sabor fulfils this strategy – celebrating the culture and authentic cuisine of Latin America, while also providing new cooking techniques and original recipes.”

Ramirez will meet with local chefs, farmers and residents in the region. She will taste family recipes passed down by generations, try the best of the artisanal pop-ups as well as sample the latest modern gastronomy trends.
