The new season of MasterChef is much more than a cooking reality show. In an age characterized by emotional eating, the kitchen has become the place where we escape from the news.

In the show "On the Other Side" (Guy Zohar) at Khan 11, the judges were filmed defining this season as a record season. The flame from the vanity fire that is visible to us from the screen is so high that you can roast an eggplant on it - and that's exactly what they did last night on Master Chef.
