Chef Kristen Kish rose to fame after winning season 10 of Bravo’s iconic cooking show Top Chef. Kish studied classic French cooking at Le Cordon Bleu in Chicago and has worked as chef de cuisine at Barbara Lynch’s Stir and Menton restaurants in Chicago.

Kristen, who is 39 years old, has a large fan base thanks to her fascinating and energetic manner on the show Top Chef.  Chef Kristen Kish rose to fame after winning season 10 of Bravo’s iconic cooking series Top Chef. Kish received his training in classic French cooking at Le Cordon Bleu in Chicago and has worked as chef de cuisine at Barbara Lynch’s Boston eateries, Stir and Menton. Kristen is the author of the cookbook Kristen Kish Cooking and the owner of Arlo Grey in Austin, Texas.

Kish was born in South Korea and later adopted by a Michigan family. Kish claims she felt dissatisfied with her appearance when she was younger. She told Inked,

One thing I was always attempting to do was manipulate my appearance in some manner.

Kish continued to alter her look, this time through tattoos, as she grew older and began to explore other cooking techniques and cuisines. She now has a slew of black tattoos on her arms, each with a very particular goal and purpose, according to her.

Her Korean name, which is tattooed across her wrist, was Kish’s first piece of ink. Her collection includes a woman clutching a chef’s knife, a butter knife, a fish skeleton, herbs, a whisk, and many more instruments of her craft, adds Inked. Kish’s other tattoos are inspired by her trade.

The regions that have affected and impacted Kish’s culinary profession are commemorated in one of her most intricate tattoos. She explained to The Slant:

I have lines in the shape of a human going down the back of my neck, and on the side of my neck, I have the shape of the Austin River that transitions into the shape of the Boston Charles River, to indicate how Austin and Boston are kind of related to her.

Kish claims that all of her tattoos have significance for her, even though that meaning may not be obvious to others. She went on to say,

I like to have slightly esoteric tattoos, she told Inked, so that others might not be able to determine what it is or why I got it. Kish’s tattoos, like the dishes she creates for Arlo Grey, appear to be expressions of her creativity, history, and love of the culinary arts.
