Cooked (2025)

COOKED takes a comedic look inside the murky and dysfunctional world of a franchised hospitality brand. An ensemble, multicultural cast, bring to life their trials, tribulations, and a penny- pinching owner who will stop at nothing to save a dollar. From aggressive customers, to an empathy deprived owner, mentally unhinged low-paid staff, and a small handful of workers who keep it running, COOKED delivers a candid and unblinkered view of the Australian hospitality sector. Featuring out-of-date products, sexual harassment, lawyers, allergies, and a marketing department seemingly hell-bent on creating chaos, it is all fun and games until someone loses an eye. Multiple challenges for the young adults surface each episode as they battle to overcome their naivety. There may well be burgers on plates, but this is the world behind the scenes from the team who (sometimes) put them there.
