He is mainly recognized for his participation on ‘Masterchef’ and ‘Top Chef’ reality cooking competition shows, where he serves as one of the main judges. His love for food began from a young age when he was traveling the world with his family due to their Navy duties. He developed a love for music and food during their travels hence, his motivation to pursue a full-time culinary career.

“Kids see cooking as a creative outlet now, like soccer and ballet. It gives me hope that things like fast food, childhood obesity and the horrible state of school lunches can be addressed by kids and their parents.” - Graham Elliot
