Hello Avalon Beach Fishing Club,

 

The LifeStyleFOOD channel is looking for potential contestants to take part in the inaugural local version of Come Dine with Me’. We’re searching for people who have a passion for cooking and want to show off their culinary delights on TV.

We’re hoping you would be interested in sending out our flyer to alert your members and colleagues (or perhaps even yourself!) about the up coming series.

 

Who we’re looking for:

·          Home cooks, 18 years and over, with a flair for throwing dinner parties

·          Residents of Sydney or Melbourne happy to cook for 4 strangers in their own home

·          Interesting characters with strong opinions about food and dining, and not afraid to speak their mind

 

How the show works:-

·          Over five days, five people who’ve never previously met will look round each other’s homes, sample each other’s cooking, and pass judgment on each other’s entertaining skills

·          The winning host each week will win a generous cash prize

 

What you need to do:

If you are interested in being part of the show there are two ways you can apply.
