Kristen Kish never wanted to be on Top Chef. Now that 10 years have passed since she fought her way back from elimination to become the second woman to earn that coveted title, she says she has even less interest in returning to the competition again.

It makes sense, given the many other opportunities on her plate.

Since winning Season 10 of Top Chef in 2013, Kish has become a bona fide food TV star, co-hosting 36 Hours on the Travel Channel, Fast Foodies on TruTV, and Iron Chef: Quest for an Iron Legend on Netflix. This year, she is going solo with Restaurants at the End of the World, an excellent new four-part series that premieres on NatGeo on March 21 at 10 p.m. and will be available to stream on Disney+ after that.
