Rave Review from Food Network Chef

Well, he’s been to plenty of Illinois restaurants, and one left him with goosebumps. He told the Chicago Tribune after he featured Taste of Peru in Season 8 that the food left him with goosebumps.

Chef Cesar Izquierdo made his famous tamales with rice flour and banana leaves, which Guy featured on the show, and it left him almost speechless. And for those who have watched the show, you know that for Guy to be speechless says a lot.
