As I was visiting Turkey, watched few episodes and felt sensory terror.
Pretty sure, eating like a Neatherlander is not an accustomed tradition in Turkey, unfortunately by so-called Judges of the Show.
Being familiar by the format from UK &US versions, it was a tragic view indeed. (contestants are bullied beyond reason of the concept)...sorry folks..no real info about local food (almost all entries are Arabic not Turkish (as I'm assured).
All I can say is MasterChef franchise needs to be more Selective when it comes to regions not well-known.
Haven eaten some of the best pallatible seafood tapas sort there, I'm flabbergasted that 5 shows that I've seen featured ToTaly Arabic cuisine..all pulse, dough, minced meat.
Since the show doesn't serve any purpose to inspire or motivate talented chefs or aspiring ones..Doesn't Deserve MasterChef TiTle
