Format
[edit | edit source]This reality show has a group of young kid chefs and an executive level chef who are pitted against each other in three rounds of themed competition.
The competitors' overall aptitude and areas of expertise are tested in three dynamic cooking rounds as they are challenged to create a different dish, under unusual circumstances. In the first two rounds, a panel of judges tastes the dishes and determine which chef had created the most delicious and inspired plate. The third and final round is a blind taste test which is judged by a critically acclaimed master-level chef. The overall winner takes home the ultimate prize of bragging.
