MasterChef Australia

Hosted by Sarah Wilson, MasterChef Australia gives budding chefs the ultimate once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to develop their cooking skills, to be mentored by the best, and ultimately make a change in their lives.

Signing up as MasterChef's three-person judging panel are two of Australia's most respected chefs and restaurateurs Gary Mehigan and George Calombaris, plus one of the world’s most acclaimed food critics Matt Preston.

Professionals famous for excellence in their fields, the judges have been hand-picked to bring expert knowledge to this life-changing and entertaining series.
Putting their reputations on the line, each is committed to using their extensive experience to mould the best chef
