Moshe Roth Opens Up: "You Don't Do This to a Colleague"

Moshe Roth gives an extensive interview about leaving "MasterChef": he found out from the press, no one spoke to him beforehand. His wife Shiran accuses Assaf Granit of knowing in advance and not updating him. Roth talks about the most expensive restaurant in Israel, his weight loss, and missing his parents.

Moshe Roth, the chef who had been associated with the show "MasterChef" since its first day, recounts in a wide-ranging interview his painful feelings after learning from the press that his time on the show was over. "They didn't really talk to me before," he says in pain, describing a night of loss alongside his wife Shiran. His wife Shiran, who manages his business, reveals that two days before the publication, new filming dates were coordinated, and she accuses Assaf Granit, his former partner, of knowing the decision in advance and not updating them. "You don't do this to a colleague," she says. Roth also talks about his restaurant "&Moshe" in Tel Aviv, considered the most expensive in Israel with a meal costing 950 shekels per diner, and about the physical transformation he underwent: from 208 kilograms to about 106 kilograms, following surgery and fear of losing his family. He shares his longing for his deceased parents and the difficulty of balancing demanding work with family life. Despite the disappointment, Roth plans next steps: a thriller book and a secret TV format.
