MasterChef Australia on 10 – Nǐ Hǎo Hong Kong! MasterChef Australia Goes International. MasterChef Australia. Coming Soon To 10 And 10 Play.
MasterChef Australia has landed overseas, filming three mouth-watering episodes in culinary hot spot Hong Kong.
Home to 77 Michelin starred restaurants and over 15,000 dining establishments, Hong Kong is the perfect kitchen away from home for MasterChef Australia judges, Andy Allen, Poh Ling Yeow, Sofia Levin and Jean-Christophe Novelli, plus this season’s crop of enthusiastic home cooks.
MasterChef Australia last visited Hong Kong during season one in 2009. Since then, the food scene has continued to flourish and Hong Kong has cemented itself as a world-class culinary hub, with everything from street eats all the way up to award-winning fine dining.
Travelling in association with Hong Kong Tourism Board and Cathay Pacific Airways, the episodes of MasterChef Australia filmed in Hong Kong will showcase iconic landmarks and bring the city’s intrinsic east-meets-west culture to our screens.
MasterChef Australia judge Andy Allen said:
“I’ve never been to Hong Kong, but I’ve been really interested in the place for a long time. That’s because I see the city’s array of food is off the charts: it’s a melting pot of different cultures, bold flavours, and one-of-a-kind ingredients.
“Blending Michelin-starred restaurants with bustling street markets, it seems to have this world-class food culture going on. It’s so good that now myself, the other judges, and contestants can finally get amongst it this season.”
MasterChef Australia is produced by Endemol Shine Australia (a Banijay company). Format created by Franc Roddam and represented internationally by Banijay Rights.
