When Dorian Hunter was crowned the winner of 'MasterChef' Season 10, she created history by becoming the first-ever Black woman to win the coveted title. Dorian's journey on the hit culinary competition show was anything but easy, yet the Cartersville resident never gave up and worked extremely hard to not only fine-tune her cooking skills but also understand the judges' feedback and incorporate it into her cooking.

All her hard work paid off when Dorian walked out of the 'MasterChef' kitchen with a 'MasterChef' trophy, a whopping $ 250,000, and an opportunity to train under the finest chefs on the planet - Gordon Ramsay, Joe Bastianich, and Aaron Sanchez. In an exclusive interview with MEAWW, Dorian had shared what she planned on doing post 'MasterChef'. She shared, "I want to publish several cookbooks and open a fine dining restaurant featuring elevated southern cuisine.” It's been two years since her win, so what has she been up to since then. Has she managed to make her dream of opening a fine dining restaurant and publishing cookbooks a reality?

Where is 'MasterChef' winner Dorian Hunter now?

Since winning the 'MasterChef' trophy life seems to have taken a 180-degree turn for Dorian. When Dorian entered the MasterChef competition she was working as a creeler who had big dreams of getting her foot into the food industry and opening her own southern-style restaurant. Unfortunately due to financial constraints, she had to put her big dreams on the backburner. But the $250,000 prize money definitely helped Dorian get closer to her dreams.  According to her website, Dorian is "currently working on different recipes in preparation for the release of her first cookbook." On the show Dorian shared the emotional story of how she lost her mother to breast cancer on 2017. The chef is determined to use her platform to create awareness about the disease and the importance of getting screened. So she also has plans of working alongside some of the cancer research organizations.

Dorian also appears to be keen on sharing her love for food with fans. The 'MasterChef; winner regularly conducts classes to teach her followers and fans various recipes and her secret tips and tricks. She also cooks at various private events. Dorian regularly posts pictures of her breath-taking creations on her Instagram. She recently posted a picture of herself in the 'MasterChef' kitchen teasing her followers with the information that she might make an appearance on the upcoming 'MasterChef: Legends'  Season 11. We are happy to see Dorian chasing her goals and turning her dreams into reality.
