Overview
It featured televiewers sending food requests to the show. If chosen, the show's host (Rob Pengson for the first season) would visit the kitchen of the chosen televiewer or celebrity guest and help them cook the food they requested.[1]
The idea for the show came when Rob Pengson, director of the Global Culinary and Hospitality Academy, asked his student Rosebud Benitez (who was hosting on QTV at the time) if the school could be featured on tv. She then told him that QTV was preparing a new concept for a cooking show. He was then cast by Wilma Galvante to host the new cooking show.[1]
For the second season, Marvin Agustin stepped in as host.[2]
