King of Culinary (Chinese: 三把刀; pinyin: Sānbǎdāo; Malay: Raja Kulinari; Tamil: ராஜா கைய வச்சா; Raja Kaiya Vecha; lit. Three Knives, ) is a Singaporean culinary game show broadcast on Mediacorp Channel 5, Channel 8, Suria, Vasantham and simulcast on MeWATCH and YouTube. Season 1 was aired only on Channel 8 and hosted by television personality Lee Teng, with home cooks pitting against veteran top chefs for a cash prize and a set of kitchen knives.[1][2] The first season premiered for 13 episodes which premiered 3 July 2019 and ended on 25 September 2019. The show announced for a second season in 2020, with the second season slated for a 18 November 2020 premiere date; the second season is hosted by Cavin Soh, who previously served as a judge in season 1[3][4] and aired on Channel 8. A third season was announced on 15 February 2022 and will be premiering in three languages for Chinese, Malay and Tamil beginning 20 August 2022.[5][6] A fourth season premiered on 6 September 2024 with Soh and three chefs reprising their roles along with a new chef, James Tay, while reverting back to the original Chinese format, due to the multi-language format receiving poor reception and confusing format.[7]
