Simón Oliveros and María Luisa Godoy are hosting a new edition of the “¿Qué pasó acá?” segment on TVN’s Chile Conectado.

The program highlights the intersection of national identity and culinary heritage. By showcasing traditional flavors and must-see corners of the country, the series aims to preserve and promote local customs for a modern audience.

This new season focuses on exploring Chilean gastronomy and notable local spots. The production involves filming at various locations across Chile to document typical recipes and the cultural significance of regional cooking. The initiative serves as a guide to the best of national flavors and the most important cultural sites within the country.

The segment is scheduled to air on Sunday, March 8 [1], at 15:30 [2] local time. The broadcast will be available on TVN, bringing the diverse culinary landscapes of the region into viewers' homes.

Oliveros and Godoy lead the effort to bridge the gap between urban viewers and the rural traditions that define Chilean food. The program intends to provide a comprehensive look at how traditional recipes have evolved while maintaining their core cultural essence.

By visiting these locations, the hosts intend to highlight the people behind the recipes and the history of the spots they visit. This approach transforms a standard cooking show into a broader exploration of Chilean geography and society.

“The program highlights the intersection of national identity and culinary heritage.”

The return of “¿Qué pasó acá?” reflects a broader trend in Chilean media toward cultural tourism and the preservation of intangible heritage. By focusing on gastronomy as a gateway to regional exploration, TVN is leveraging national pride to drive viewership and support local culinary traditions.
