Masterchef Australia - A one of a kind culinary show

Masterchef Australia was first aired on April 27, 2009. Since then, it has had a meteoric rise. Masterchef, being a cooking show franchise has other adaptions from countless countries. Australia obviously being part of a part of it. Other adaptations also include Masterchef US, Masterchef India and many more. In my opinion, the Australian one gracefully rises above all and shines, so obviously being my favourite. There are even four major series of Masterchef franchise, The normal Masterchef, Masterchef Professionals, Masterchef juniors and Masterchef All-Stars.    

To talk about Masterchef Australia and it's franchise, it is apparently the most watched television show in Australia. Predictable. It has completed over six seasons, each one predictably better than the last. The show is judged and hosted by three fabulous cooks in this world. Gary Mehigen, George Calombaris and Matt Preston. Everybody has each other's qualities but Gary's personality, George's supportive and friendly nature and Matt's wise and strict judgement makes this trio perfect.

In season six Of Australia, the show was graced by the visit of Kylie Kwong, Heston Blumenthal and the legend of cooking, Marco Pierre White. They three shared their exceptional knowledge of cooking and gave a fresh perspective on altering the traditional classical dish into a modern delicacy. Kylie even mentored the the contestant running for the immunity pin. I must tell you, some of the home cooks have the Midas touch in cooking. A guy named Brent Owens won this one, he was also a home cook like everyone and he especially struggled to stay in the competition. That guy went through every elimination except one, that too a team challange. Now that folks, is pure determination, will-power and hard work.

Overall, season six was as lip-smacking and an amazing ride into the culinary world. I hope this review was at least half as good as the show, because if it is, then I have compelled you to watch it. I would seriously love to do that, maybe you will be salivating and even despise your home food temporarily after watching the show. See ya! have a good day.
