Fatafeat Brings Intense Culinary Battles to Screens with ‘Master or Disaster,’ Premiering On August 29th

Warner Bros. Discovery’s largest Arabic food network, Fatafeat, is thrilled to announce the launch of its latest culinary competition series, “Master or Disaster,” a high-stakes, adrenaline-pumping showdown where two exceptional chefs go head-to-head in a battle of creativity, skill, and precision. Hosted by the charismatic Firas Kazma, the show promises to push culinary boundaries and keep audiences on the edge of their seats.

In “Master or Disaster,” each culinary challenge unfolds over two intense episodes, featuring two competing chefs that are challenged to create a menu for their competitor and then serve in a busty restaurant setting. They race against the clock and the expectations of discerning diners, aiming to generate the highest revenue and earn the best reviews. The ultimate test is to see who emerges as the true culinary master and who faces a culinary disaster.

Master or Disaster brings together some of the most talented chefs, each bringing their own unique culinary flair to the competition. Chef Marwan Sardouk, a culinary innovator known for blending traditional Middle Eastern flavors with modern techniques; Chef Katlego Mlambo, born in Johannesburg which makes that his culinary journey is profoundly influenced by his South African heritage; Chef James Knight, a culinary expert with over two decades of experience in the hospitality industry; Chef Kholoud Ahmed Suhail, a Saudi culinary virtuoso with a decade of experience in food catering; and Chef Mohammad Salah, a renowned chef and Director of Menu Creations at Chefs’ Studios.
