Don't be surprised if the next season of Top Chef features a gourmet baby food challenge.

Emmy-winning reality star Tom Colicchio expanded his well-fed brood this morning, welcoming his second son with wife Lori Silverbush and his third son overall.

While a Bravo rep confirmed the birth to E! News, Colicchio wasted no time in delivering the good news (and name) to fans—and thanking one famous foodie pal in particular…

"Mateo Lev Coliccio Born today at 12:11pm 7.9 lbs," he tweeted this afternoon, before going on to thank a handful of friends—including Charlize Theron—for their congratulatory messages.

Little Mateo join big brothers Luka Bodhi, 19 months, and Dante, 17.

Bravo, Tom!
