Ultimately, there can only be one winner.
But as the first episode of the ITV show aired tonight, some viewers left saying it was ‘too American.’
One person said: “Absolute American sh****. I can’t imagine any decent dish can come from this.”
Another added: “The production on next level chef is very…American. That’s not a compliment.”

A third commented: “Is this Next Level Chef show sharing a set with the American version? So confused by how American it looks and feels but the contestants are British.”
And a fourth agreed, saying: “Obviously imported from America. Waiting for a high speed car chase before the end.”
But others defended the show, and asked why there were complaints about it being ‘too American.’
Someone said: “Why are people complaining about it being too American? It originally came from America so of course it’s going to be American.”
As well as this, some viewers also compared the cooking show to Spanish science fiction horror The Platform, which is on Netflix.
One person said: “#NextLevelChef so Gordon Ramsey or some tv producers watched El Hoyo / The Platform, missed the point of the film and thought let’s change the concept and turn it into a cooking contest…”

Another said: “#NextLevelChef brings back memories of the film ‘The Platform’ but with chefs!”
A third added: “They’ve 100% robbed this concept from The Platform but I’m here for it #NextLevelChef”
And a fourth commented: “So someone saw The Platform and turned it into a cooking competition? #NextLevelChef?”
The winner will receive a life-changing cash prize of £100,000 and a one-year mentorship from all three mentors which will help make their culinary dreams a reality.
