Plot

• Seasons 1–2

In each episode, two guests bring their refrigerators to the studio, discuss the contents, and select two chefs to create a dish in 15 minutes. The guest then picks the winning chef.

• Season 3

In season 3, two professional X-Factor chefs joined the six regular chefs. If they win two head-to-head battles, they can become regular chefs, like Jeffrey Chen. Unlike the first two seasons where chefs had to use a required extra ingredient, season 3 allows them to order any ingredient or utensil not in the kitchen, thanks to JD.com sponsorship. Winners receive a badge and a golden spoon with jade decorations.

• Season 4

The Chinese version features a new team format with four set areas. Jackson and a guest lead teams of rotating chefs, with a head chef chosen each episode. Teams use separate ingredients, and captains assist with prep only. He Jiong serves as referee. Winning head chefs earn a gold-and-diamond badge. Teams stay for two episodes; head chefs rotate.

• Season 5

In Season 5, Jackson and He Jiong become head chefs, competing in a replication challenge in Episode 1, which ends in a draw. Jackson also assists in the main competition alongside the guest not revealing a fridge. Teams are formed through dish names and random draws from Gemice ice cream cups. Menu rooms are now green rooms. Guests submit a meal video before filming. A “magnifying glass” shows fridge contents if only one fridge is present. In Episodes 3 and 5, rule issues led to ingredient isolation and a special shopping round featuring instant noodles.

• Season 6

Filming was delayed due to COVID-19 and travel restrictions, with Wei Daxun hosting the first six episodes. The set now has a Lego-style design with standardized fridges hidden between mascots Popo and Todi. Chefs wear show aprons only when cooking, and hands are sanitized before serving. Alcohol sponsors were paused until Episode 7. Lipton is the new beverage sponsor, and Mei Yi Tian Milk replaces Germice. Fridge contents are pre-analyzed, and the winning chef teaches the dish in their native language.^[7]

• Season 7

This season shifts to a relaxed “home party” format in a three-storey house, where guests team up with hosts to win ingredients through games. One or two returning chefs help the winners cook. New fixed members Nine, AK, and game planner Chen Ziming join Jackson and He Jiong. Each episode features a dish, dessert, or drink using sponsor Cha Li Wang’s beverage.
