More information was known about the surprise departure of Juan Ferrara from Cocineros Argentinos (TV Pública), after 15 years in the program.
"I really wanted to celebrate these almost 15 years and share them with all of you. Unfortunately, for decisions that are alien to me, it could not ", published, days ago, the chef on his Instagram account, making it clear that his departure from Argentine Chefs was not a decision of his.
In Socios del espectáculo (El Trece), Rodrigo Lussich told his information about the reason for Ferrera's departure from the renowned program.

"What we have to tell Chantal Abad to the program Cocineros Argentinos as a host, he was a little relegated," said the host, referring to the incorporation of the former member of La Peña de Morfi (Telefe) to the cycle of Public TV,
"(Juan) complained to the production because he did not have the place he intended and they invited him to retire," Lussich added.
And Adrian Pallares added: "He claimed that he is the oldest in the program. It has been since 2009. And well, they said 'look, if you don't understand things... Chantal was as a guest one day and the truth that it yielded, as they say on television. She has nothing to do with all this. The production itself has had many twists and turns... something similar happened to him also with Sofia Pachano. They are absolute. 'Don't you like it?' Well, grab your things," said the driver, recalling the conflictive departure of Anibal Pachano's daughter from Argentine Cooks.

Juan Ferrara's farewell letter from Cocineros Argentinos
The truth is that it cost me a lot to start these words that are the farewell of Argentine Chefs. There are many strong emotions that invade me these days. I was slow to express them because I gave myself the space I needed to do so. During that time, and still do, I did not stop receiving hundreds of messages of affection and a lot of love. I would love to be able to give each of you a hug...
Juan Ferra's post on Instagram when announcing his departure from Cocineros Argentinos.
All these messages are the fruit of my almost 15 years of work. I am proud of everything done and happy to have transmitted passion and joy. Happy also because the program spread the gastronomy of all Argentina, through great chefs, food producers and workers of the land. We spread values that I will never stop transmitting because for me they are fundamental to make quality television.
I want to thank all the co-workers of the production company who passed through these years, from them I learned a lot. Thanksto Public TV and all its farmers.
I really wanted to celebrate these almost 15 years and share them with all of you. Unfortunately, due to decisions that are alien to me, it was not possible. This gives me more strength to continue working and to find new projects that I can join and that make me feel that there is still much to communicate and disseminate. The television that represents me is the one that is always done working as a team, generating collective ideas and with respect for the other.
Once again, eternal thanks for all the love and affection you give me from every corner of the country. I keep them in my heart.
Until always Argentine Chefs.
