Food Network show looking for amateur chefs
Food Network in Canada is looking for five amateur chefs to film a new season of 'Come Dine With Me,' set to air on Food Network and Citytv+ in 2025.
'Come Dine With Me Canada' is a competition where each contestant is judged on their ability to host a home dinner party. After each party, meals are rated and the highest scorer at the end of the week wins a cash prize.
While filming will eventually take place in one area, all Canadians who meet the following requirements are invited to apply:
'We're planning on going coast to coast,' said casting producer Heather Muir in an interview. 'If we receive some great candidates all from the same city, then we're definitely going there.'
The new season aims to highlight 'unique Canadian perspectives' and the many different cuisines that are well-represented in Canada.
'When looking at a specific area, what we're hoping for is that the attributes specific to that area really shine through. Think about what you would get sitting at a dinner dining table in Calgary versus what you would get in Halifax,' Muir said.
