Programme Overview
Description
Take two spontaneous neighboring families and two chefs, add to the mix a charming host with two surprise ingredients and let everything simmer for 90 minutes... This is the unbeatable recipe for mouth-watering game show format Chef at Your Door!
A fun family show delivering a spontaneous competition that will bring the whole community together, Chef at Your Door presents a surprise culinary challenge to two neighboring families. For those who find a chef at their door, the task appears simple: an exciting cook-off against their neighbor to see who can serve up the tastiest two-course dinner within a 90-minute time limit. However, there’s a major catch: the two main ingredients are supplied by the presenter but all the other ingredients must come from whatever the family already has in their own kitchen!
Each household is assigned a professional chef to lead the way as the entire family takes part in conjuring up their delicious dishes. While this is happening, the host finds five hungry neighbors willing to take a seat at the tasters’ panel. And, in this show, age is nothing but a number as, whether cooking or judging on the panel, adults and kids alike are encouraged to join in. When the time runs out, their efforts are sampled by the panel – who can award points for taste, presentation, and originality. At the end of each episode the family with the most points takes the culinary crown, and the coveted Chef at Your Door grand prize.
This lively, cost-effective format leaves the elaborate kitchen sets of traditional cookery show productions behind as the series is all about the contestants’ own kitchens and what they’ve already got. By going out on the road, Chef at Your Door visits different homes, families, and neighborhoods in each episode, bringing a new ambiance to every competition. The series is also packed with opportunities for advertisers and product placement – from ingredients to prize sponsorships.
Offering the ultimate feel-good family entertainment, Chef at Your Door is brimming with unique characters, challenges, and inspiration – ensuring that everyone is in for a deliciously unforgettable culinary experience!
To date, the format has been sold in Ukraine (Inter) and Poland (TVP1).
