Restaurateur and award-winning celebrity chef, Aarón Sánchez is partnering with Pepsi for “Talking Sabor,” a limited series celebrating Latin food across America that will debut on Hulu April 24, 2024.
The Details
The eight-episode series sees Sánchez visiting Hispanic-owned small businesses in Los Angeles, Houston, Miami and New York, where his focus is solely on celebrating sabor (flavor), and the special feeling you get when sharing delicious food with friends and family.
In each episode, Chef Aarón and his guests visit two restaurants to hear the stories of the hardworking business owners (many run as multi-generational family businesses), taste the signature dishes that have turned locals into loyalists, and select a favorite dish from each restaurant to share with each other, paired with an ice cold Pepsi or Pepsi Zero Sugar.
“‘Talking Sabor’ is a journey to the heart of what makes Latin cuisine so special – its ability to bring people together through rich flavors and stories,” said Chef Aarón Sanchez.
“Collaborating with Pepsi and Disney has allowed us to turn the spotlight on the vibrant traditions and diverse communities behind Hispanic-owned small businesses. Every episode, every dish, and every story is a testament to the beauty of sharing a meal and savoring the incredible tapestry of Latin culture.”
Sanchez recently appeared on ABC’s “Good Morning America” to talk about the show:
