For several years,

Christophe Krywonis was a Telefe figure

for his participation in

MasterChef, MasterChef Junior, Nightmare in the kitchen, Kitchen owners, Families face to face

and

Bake Off Argentina.

But 2020 marked the end of one cycle and the beginning of another as the chef

decided to reject the proposal

to be part of the

MasterChef Celebrity

jury

to go to El Trece

 to cook live in the

Lo de Mariana

cycle

.

This Sunday, Krywonis visited

I must say

(America, Sundays at 9 pm) and took the opportunity to tell why he made the decision to make this

radical change in his career. 

“

It was a momentary departure, that's where I come back.

What I did know was that I didn't want to stay in a comfort zone, in a program that I know will get a good rating.

I was looking for other things, I was

looking to cook

”, explained the chef in the cycle led by Luis Novaresio.

Christophe Krywonis said that the rumors that they assure that it receives the highest salary of the TV, are a lie.

Capture TV.

The cook admitted that the quarantine changed his vision.

"In the pandemic I discovered that I cooked for people with wires, in my house. And it was dramatic, because I had a bit of a difficult time at first. But it was good for me to communicate with

people, who suddenly

asked me to please cook"

, counted. 

"And that made me see that it is good to do a program like

Masterchef

or

Bake Off

, because I love these formats, they are very nice. But I

was

also there

to do other things, out there not so media, but interesting

. I have tried it with Mariana Fabbiani and I'm going to try it now at Space with a grill program ”, highlighted the chef.

At that time, Novaresio asked Christophe if it was true that he earned

the most expensive salary in television.

“They told me the story that I was the highest salary on Argentine television.

A lot of bullshit is said

too, not only that.

I laughed when they told me they were saying that, ”said the cook.

Although he said that he does not watch television, Krywonis explained that he finds out about everything through other people: "It is not that it bounces me and I do not want to know it, but that I do not care much."

Asked

what value he gives to money

, the chef said: "It

helps to be happy

, there is no doubt. But here, not tomorrow, at the moment. It is now."

Krywonis' last foray into Telefe was in 2020, when he led the success of "Bake Off."

The truth is that the relationship between the businessman and Telefe was on good terms since before the premiere of

MasterChef Celebrity,

Christophe wrote a message on his networks

wishing the best of the cycle led by Santiago del Moro.

“I have a lot to do, honestly.

The truth is that

work, luckily, I have plenty at this time

.

I have my great passion which is cooking and, shortly,

I am going to open a chain of rotisseries in various neighborhoods

and I need to dedicate a lot of time to that project.

Now I am also very passionate about my line of men's grooming products, which I am also about to launch in the near future.

I mean, it's not that I'm idle or doing nothing.

On the contrary,

I have a lot of things to do ”

, he concluded.
