MasterChef Thailand has been awarded National Winner for Best Adaptation of an Existing Format at the 2018 Asian Academy Creative Awards, Best Variety Show Award at the 2018 Nataraja Awards, Best Television Program Award from the 2018 Dara Daily Awards and Program of the Year Award at the 2017 Fever Awards.

MasterChef Junior Thailand Season 1 was the highest rating show for a reality format adaptation on Digital Terrestrial Free TV as well as the No. 1 hashtag trending show in Thailand during the broadcast period.

MasterChef is the worldwide smash hit format that sets out on a nationwide quest to find the best amateur cook in the country. A cook whose passion, creativity, technical skill and love of food means that they are truly a MasterChef. Through tough individual and team challenges, our amateur cooks are judged by some of the country’s top chefs and distinguished food critics. It’s a life-changing journey for many, but only one will be crowned the nation’s MasterChef.

A No.1 rated show from the UK to the US, Sweden to Spain, Italy to Israel and beyond, television’s toughest talent series has become a truly global hit. Now produced in over 60 markets worldwide, MasterChef is watched globally by more than 300 million viewers and has transformed over 100 amateur chefs into professionals.

The MasterChef format and finished programmes are represented internationally by Endemol Shine Group, and is based on a format originally created by Franc Roddam.
