The Hotplate was a reality cooking series from Australia that premiered on the Nine Network on 28 July 2015. The program showcased six well-established suburban dining establishments competing by traveling across the country to experience and evaluate one another’s restaurants. The judging panel was headed by British culinary author Tom Parker Bowles alongside Melbourne restaurateur Scott Pickett, with Sydney-based French chef Guillaume Brahimi joining as a guest judge specifically for the elimination rounds.
This contest provided the participating eateries with valuable industry recognition and a grand prize of $100,000, designed to enhance their business profiles. Despite its potential, only a single season was created due to legal proceedings initiated by the Seven Network, which alleged that the format bore significant resemblance to its show My Kitchen Rules. The dispute concluded with an agreement in which Nine consented not to produce additional seasons or rebroadcast the existing one.
Format
Restaurant owners from around Australia compete in a dinner-focused challenge where every element of the dining experience is evaluated. Teams that perform poorly face elimination, while the ultimate winner is awarded $100,000 to support their culinary business development.

Viewership Ratings
Peak rating within the series14 Public Dinner 1 : Marie & Emi - Japanese Tuesday 7 : 30 pm Misappropriated conceptOn 2 August 2015, Network Seven initiated legal proceedings in the Federal Court against Nine Network, accusing them of copying the show My Kitchen Rules. Seven claimed that Nine replicated key elements such as casting choices, costumes, set designs, music, promotional materials, and judging formats. A representative from Seven asserted that Nine had infringed upon their copyrighted format and production features. The lawsuit commenced on 4 August. This dispute arose after earlier friction when Nine's Reno Rumble included participants formerly featured on Seven's House Rules, although no lawsuit was pursued since those contestants were no longer under contract with Seven. On 6 August 2015, the court decided in favor of Nine, permitting the network to continue broadcasting the program; however, Seven intended to file an appeal. TerminationOn 19 February 2016, both networks reached a consensual agreement in Federal Court: Nine committed to ceasing production of additional episodes and refrained from re-airing the first season on its channel. Each party bore its own legal expenses. See also
