The competition kicks off in Waiouru with mother and son team Tyson and Denise who are dreaming big. Will they be able to impress judges Colin Fassnidge and Judith Tabron?
Our second hosts are Katikati couple Julia and Daniel. Can they wow with their modern Kiwi cuisine or will their desserts be their downfall?
It's Auckland's husband and wife team Amy and James' turn to cook! Can they blow everyone away and take the top spot?
The competition heads to Lyttelton where PJ and Rob are hosting at their Fisherman's Wharf restaurant. It's a favourite with locals and tourists, but will it live up to the judges' and teams' expectations?
As the last restaurant to cook in round one, our traditional Italians are hoping to give a bellissimo performance! Plus, one team will be eliminated!
Round two of the competition begins and our teams are given $20,000 to spruce up their restaurants! Julia and Daniel are the first to reveal their new and improved restaurant and menu.
The competition is back in Waiouru where Tyson and Denise prepare to wow the judges with their second cook in the competition - but are they playing it too safe?
Our traditional Italians are back in the kitchen in Babagatto, Nelson. With only two teams left to cook, a lot is riding on their menu!
Everything hinges on the final private restaurant - who will make it through to the grand final?
Grand Final: Our top two teams will host a three-course dinner to a packed Restaurant, but only one team will walk away with the $100,000 grand prize!
