Introducing Culinaria Kitchen: A New Way to Cook Along With Us

Culinaria Kitchen will bring basic cooking skills, tips, and tricks to the homes of viewers once a month.

We’re thrilled to announce the launch of Culinaria Kitchen, our brand-new daytime TV segment designed to bring chef-driven inspiration straight into your home. Airing the third Tuesday of every month on San Antonio Living, this series is a fresh extension of Culinaria’s mission to celebrate, support, and share the flavors of San Antonio’s vibrant culinary community.

A Mission to Inspire

At its core, Culinaria Kitchen is about making the knowledge of professional chefs more accessible to everyone. Each month, local culinary leaders will join us to share approachable recipes, clever tips, and kitchen tricks that can help transform everyday meals into something truly memorable. From seasonal dishes to holiday-ready spreads, the focus is always on celebrating food in a way that’s fun, flavorful, and easy to follow.

Chef Felicia Miranda, host Shelly Miles, and Culinaria CEO Suzanne Taranto-Etheredge have fun on the first episode of Culinaria Kitchen.

Our First Episode

We officially kicked things off on September 16 with a sweet start: local pastry chef Felicia Miranda of Cakes by Felicia joined us in the kitchen. By dressing treats up with spooky Halloween flair—and proving that creativity and fun belong on every dessert table—Felicia’s segment set the tone for what Culinaria Kitchen is all about: chef-driven, approachable inspiration that makes viewers excited to try something new at home.

Why Now

For more than two decades, Culinaria has been dedicated to strengthening our city’s hospitality industry, promoting local restaurants, and connecting people through food and wine. With the launch of Culinaria Kitchen, we’re expanding that mission beyond our signature events and onto your screen — giving viewers a chance to engage with San Antonio’s chefs and food culture on a monthly basis.

What to Expect

Each segment will feature something new to learn, taste, or try at home. Think seasonal recipes, practical techniques you can use right away, and a behind-the-scenes peek at the creativity of local chefs. Plus, every episode will be paired with a companion blog post right here, where you’ll find additional details, links, and resources to revisit and use at your own pace.

Join Us

We invite you to tune in to SA Living at 10 a.m. on the third Tuesday of every month for Culinaria Kitchen — and then check back here on the blog for more delicious inspiration. Together, we’ll make mealtime more joyful, approachable, and connected to the culinary culture that makes San Antonio shine.
