Is there anything better than a hot guy in the kitchen? No, no, there is not. Take, for instance, the hunky man being called the world's hottest chef, Peruvian-born Franco Noriega. The restaurateur, who doubles as a six-pack-clad model with a lofty social media following, recently opened his first spot in New York City called Baby Brasa — and we're suddenly craving a meal out.
In his kitchen, Franco's specialty is healthy chicken prepared with the delicious flavors of his native country, but we'll just go ahead and say that his already-acclaimed Latin menu isn't the only crowd-pleaser. Seriously. Compliments to the chef, because his Instagram is filled with steamy snaps any foodie (read: literally everyone) can appreciate. From shirtless apron shots to sizzling knife skills and all kids of abs, read on to see Franco's hottest moments. Then, take a look through some of the best recipes Peru has to offer.
