Synopsis
Twenty-five great cooks gather in a kitchen. Each is to produce a single spoonful of food. The spoons will enter the mouths of three judges: television cook Nigella Lawson, the American chef Anthony Bourdain, and the French chef Ludo Lefebvre, and each judge picks four spoons to have in the next round.
After that, a combination of group and individual tasks, helped by guest chefs, leads up to an elimination cook, again judged blind on the show's signature spoons.
