Fire Masters

The best meal should be awarded BEFORE you ask who created what dish or what's the point. The judging is messed up and holds no value otherwise.

I like this show but the dumbest part of the show is the end competition where the last contestant goes up against on of the judges. Out of the many episodes, the contestant only wins maybe 1 or 2 times. Majority of the time it's the Judge that wins. To be honest, I think this is either them trying to save money (not paying out the $10,000) or boost judges ego (particularly "Chef" Amy Mills as she "competes" the most of the episodes). If they want to improve the show, remove the judges competition and keep it 3 rounds but make the first round an advantage round with no elimination. Another option is to add another contestant (4 people), and keep it three rounds.

I love watching cooking shows, but if I see another host with cute hair, I change the channel

As charming as host Dylan Benoit may be, two of the "judges" on this program are described with their first attribute as a "Food Network personality." That says as much about the commerce-driven, reality TV non-creativity that fuels most network television as it does about what viewers (sadly) seek. This is a filmed outside, three contestants instead of four, condescending game show bit that has kept "Chopped" on the air for however many seasons. While ego is a huge part of cheffing and restauranteur'ing, legit cooking is about joy, learning, and culture as it is about "look how great I can do this". We don't need more competition shows.

You need to get better judges like chef Eddie that have personality!! Also the host needs to get rid of that top not, maybe it's just a Canadian thing!! Also I never see a good dish in the first 2 rounds so give them a little more time or find some better chefs.
