Channel: kykNET (DStv 144)
TX Time: 20h00
Genre: Reality, Food, Reality Competition
This cook-off show, filmed in the seaside town of Struisbaai in the Overberg region, is back, promising to deliver a winning recipe.
For the tenth season, Kokkedoor isn't just putting on a new apron – it's also welcoming two new judges.
In its next iteration, the show will be known as Kokkedoor: Son & See, and celebrity chefs Herman Lensing (37) and Yolani Abrahams (32) will decide which contestants reign supreme.
This season, participants entered as a team of two family members, with at least a 20-year generation gap between them.
Also, this season only wanted home cooks – no professional chefs allowed.
That's because this season shines a spotlight on the nostalgic role food plays in families and how it weaves a golden thread between generations.
In the Season 10 premiere: As the show begins, the family teams have to guess the flavours of the iconic road food meat pies.
The home cooks are also challenged to portray the family with a plate of holiday food.
