CHELSEA — The former Tello's spot on Eighth Avenue will finally reopen as a Mexican street food joint from a chef who specializes in bug cookery, according to city documents.

El Temerario — Spanish for Daredevil — will be the third authentic Mexican outpost from Chef Mario Hernandez and partner Jorge Guzman.

Hernandez famously introduced New Yorkers to grasshopper-topped tortillas and ant-sprinkled guacamole at the East Village's The Black Ant. The owners did not confirm details of the new menu.

The Chelsea joint, located at 198 Eighth Ave. on the corner of West 20th Street, will be open until midnight on weekdays and 2 a.m. weekends, according to documents filed with Community Board 4.

Hernandez learned to cook at his grandmother’s side in Cuernavava Morelos, Mexico, according to the team’s website, immigrated to New York at age 16 and worked his way up the back kitchen ladder from dishwasher to executive chef.
