Casting call: Amateur chefs in Niagara wanted for Food Network show
Are you a fabulous amateur chef? Are you the host with the most? Food Network Canada is looking for five talented home cooks in Niagara to appear on an upcoming episode of 'Come Dine with Me Canada.' In each episode of the cooking reality show, amateur chefs take turns hosting a dinner party in their home to impress other contestants with their culinary skills. After each dinner party, the chefs rate the dishes, and the highest score at the end of the week will win a cash prize and bragging rights. Casting producer Heather Muir says the format results in a very entertaining program. 'When you get five people in a room, you're going to have great moments … you're going to get lovely flowing dialogue, you're probably going to have the awkward silences,' she said. 'But the thing that always brings it together at the table is the food.' Participants must be at least 19 years old, Canadian residents, and available to film between August and October. They must commit to two full days and four consecutive evenings of filming. 'What we're looking for is people who really love to cook and are confident with their cooking skills,' Muir added. 'We are also looking for people who really like to entertain, to set a table, to invite people into their homes, to set at atmosphere for a great dinner party.' The series debuted in 2010 and is adapted from the British program of the same name. The show previously appeared on the W Network from 2010 to 2014 and included an Niagara episode in 2014. This is the first time the show will appear on the Food Network. 'If you love food and you love a good time, this is the show for you,' Muir said. 'Other cooking shows ask for certain skills, they throw different surprises at you. This is you, in your home, cooking what you love to cook and that's the fun of this show.' The show will appear on the Food Network and be available to stream on Citytv+ later this year. To apply, visit .
