Chef Roy Choi: From food trucks to CNN host

America’s king of street food has been given his own show by the news channel.

After a string of successful restaurant openings at one of the hottest hotels in Los Angeles, a stint as a culinary advisor to Jon Favreau’s food movie Chef and, of course, bragging rights to having kickstarted the phenomenal food truck movement in the US, Choi has scored another major coup in his career by bagging his own show on one of the biggest news channels in the world.
