After receiving thousands of audition tapes, the top 50 home cooks who are competing for a place on the new series “MASTERCHEF CANADA” have been selected.
Chef wannabes from coast to coast put their best dish forward for a chance to continue on the homegrown edition of one of the most successful primetime entertainment formats in the world. CTV also announced today the grand prize these home cooks are vying for: the MasterChef Canada title and a $100,000 cash prize to help make their culinary dreams come true.
“We searched the country and are confident these Top 50 home cooks are the best this country has to offer,” said Phil King, President of CTV Programming and Sports, in an official release. “The production team selected amateur chefs of all ages and vocations who are ready to showcase their passion, talent, and drive as they cook for the right to be the first-ever Canadian MasterChef.”
“MASTERCHEF CANADA” airs Mondays at 8pm beginning January 20th on CTV and CTV GO.
