HOT GUYS WHO COOK ON ASTRO CHANNEL 702


The kitchen will not be the only place steaming up when Hot Guys Who Cook premieres on 25th June @ 9pm. Viewers can expect a feast for their eyes and appetite as this DIVA Universal original brings up close and personal 18 of our favourite hottest guys from around Asia, over six episodes.

Each half-hour episode will sizzle with three Hot Guys each cooking their signature dish under seven minutes. While slaving over a stove, the guys will be sharing endearing stories and anecdotes on cooking and some personal experiences, making Hot Guys Who Cook a delicious series a must-watch.

Firing up the pilot episode will be model Jason Godfrey, food columnist Erwan Heusaff and host Josiah Mizukami. The rest of the line-up comprises, race car driver Alex Yoong, ex-MTV VJ Utt, Mixed Martial Arts fighter Peter Davis, banker-writer Redza Minhat and actors: George Young, Tom Price, Nat Ho, Henry Golding, Paul Foster, Keagan Kang, Shane Mardjuki, Bobby Tonelli, Brendan Fernandez; and models Drew Rivera and Victor Basa.
Equipped with charming personalities and good looks, the Hot Guys will tantalize and titillate the senses of viewers, proving that cooking shows may not have to be just about culinary skills or Michelin-starred food.

David Gunson, Vice President of South East Asia Channels, Universal Networks International said,  “Women today are more in touch with what they want, and are unabashed about it. A show like Hot Guys Who Cook will greatly appeal to our viewers in a fun and candid way.”
