"A delectable Japanese tradition takes root on UK soil".
The cult Japanese cookery competition Iron Chef comes, by way of Iron
Chef America, to Channel 4.
Across the week, teams of eager culinary challengers compete with our
four resident Iron Chefs in the ultimate high-energy cook-off - to
discover and revel in the best of global cuisine. The competition
takes place in "Kitchen Stadium" an amazing pressure cooker
of an arena and the battle is presided over by "The
Chairman" an enigmatic Japanese ring master who embodies the
"ancient heritage" of the competition. Our four Iron Chefs
will represent the best of global culinary expertise and will be
awesome, intimidating experts in their field.
Each week a team of four chefs compete against one of the Iron chefs
each episode. The task is to prepare four superlative dishes all
based on that days "Special Ingredient" which is unveiled
with great pomp and ceremony by The Chairman - it could be anything
from aubergine to octopus.
The food will be judged by expert food critics and at the end of each
show a winner is announced. Each week will culminate in a grand
Friday Final where the best of that week's challengers will go head
to head with the strongest of that week's Iron Chefs in the toughest
of challenges - where the special ingredient will be especially
challenging. If the successful challenger wins this final cook-off
they will pocket a thousand pounds.
In the words of the global Chairmen - Allez Cuisine.
