About The Show
Kids Kitchen Relay sees two teams of three go head-to-head in a relay cooking competition. Each team is given a theme and its members take turns to prepare one dish over three rounds for a chance to walk away with the winner’s title and a grand prize.
The contestants range from aspiring young chefs to kids who just have a natural knack for cooking. Watch Kids Kitchen Relay Mondays at WAT 15:30 | CAT 16:30 | EAT 17:30 (DStv Channel 173)
