Hyattsville celebrity chef Tobias Dorzon stars in a new cooking show on ESPN, combining his past as an NFL player and Food Network star.
Dorzon, who runs the popular Huncho House restaurant at University Town Center at 6451 America Blvd., hosts “Timeout with Tobias,” which airs on ESPN+.
The six-episode show, now available for viewing, features Dorzon cooking and talking with professional athletes such as Kayvon Thibodeaux of the New York Giants, who helps him make King Crab Asian Garlic Noodles.
Dorzon, who played for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Tennessee Titans, has TV experience from multiple appearances on Guy Fieri’s shows “Guy’s Grocery Games” and “Tournament of Champions.” He was also recently featured on “CBS Mornings.”
Since opening in 2022, Huncho House has become a popular upscale restaurant at University Town Center. Its menu combines Asian food, West African influences, and Italian cooking techniques.
Dorzon was recently named “Chef of the Year” by the Restaurant Association of Maryland, which is the first time a chef has been named from Prince George’s County.
