Among the chefs in the programme were Leif Mannerström, Gert Klötzke, Fredrik Eriksson, Mathias Dahlgren and Christian Hellberg.

Format

Two teams competed against each other in cooking. Every team had one celebrity guest and one professional chef. The guests were given a limit sum of money to use for shopping for the necessary ingredients. Within 20 minutes (from 2008: 15 minutes) they were then required to prepare their foods.

Finally, it was up to the audience to vote for the winning team.
