Description from the publisher:

Competition Kitchen is a cooking show party game where you get to be the rockstar chefs and celebrity judges. Instead of food, you have cards, and instead of pots and pans, you have your words and imagination. Three to seven players compete to emerge as the top chef at the table!

Each round, one or more players are the judge, and the rest of the players are chefs. Every chef gathers ingredients from the Protein, Vegetable, and Flavor decks and, after the judge reveals the challenge, they choose which ones to get rid of and which ones to keep. Then, before the chefs can share their creation, the judge unveils the Secret Ingredient that must be incorporated in some way into each dish. After hearing what each chef has prepared, the judge will determine who wins each round. Then, the next player at the table becomes the judge - and at the end, the player with the most challenges won is the champion of Competition Kitchen.

The Judge draws two challenge cards and two Secret Ingredients, choosing, in secret, which ones the chefs will use for inspiration this round.
Every Chef draws two cards from each basic ingredient deck — Flavors, Proteins, and Vegetables — creating a hand of six total cards.

The Judge reveals the challenge card, reading it aloud. Judges are encouraged to provide more details about what they’re looking for in the chefs’ dishes.

Chefs now have an important decision to make: they can only keep one of each kind of ingredient. Chefs choose one Protein, one Vegetable, and one Flavor to keep, and discard the rest.

The Judge now unveils the Secret Ingredient, reading it aloud. Every Chef must incorporate this ingredient into their dish in some way. How they use it is totally up to them…

Now We’re Cookin’!
Once the chefs have their challenge and ingredients, the real fun begins! Each chef describes to the Judge how they choose to use their ingredients, what techniques and equipment they use, how the dish is plated, and just what it will taste like. Once the Judge has listened to every chef, they will make the ultimate decision: which dish wins? Only one chef can win the challenge, and the runner-up will be awarded the Secret Ingredient for use in a later dish.

And this is just the beginning. With over 5000 different ingredient combinations and special variations like Sabotage, Scorekeeper, Stacked, Scraps, Expert, No Leftovers, and Sliced, you’ll never play the same game twice!
