Meet this week’s Cook of the Week Challenge judges
Whole Foods Market contributed ingredients to the Week 3 recipe challenges so Tatiyana Piper from the Schaumburg store made another appearance as a guest judge along with her counterpart from the Palatine store, Tanya Kostestky.
Tanya Kostetsky: Tanya recently moved from the Lone Star State to the Windy City to work as a marketing specialist for Whole Foods Market. She graduated from Texas State University with a degree in marketing and started with Whole Foods Market in Houston. She migrated to Chicago after falling in love with the food scene while on vacation. She counts herself as a longtime foodie who loves to spend time in the kitchen and desperately misses authentic Tex-Mex. Her role at Whole Foods Market has allowed her to expand her palate and learn more about food then she ever dreamed. Her favorite part of her job is supporting local vendors and local nonprofits. Her current culinary obsession is the Cubano sandwich at Café Colao in Chicago’s Humboldt Park neighborhood.
