Yair Shariki Denied Co-hosting Spot on 'The Winning Kitchen' by Avri Gilad

During a segment on their show, co-hosts Yair Shariki and Avri Gilad appeared wearing aprons from the reality cooking competition "The Winning Kitchen" (MKR), ahead of its new season premiere. Shariki seized the moment to playfully ask Gilad if he would consider him as a partner for the show, presenting his apron as a persuasive argument. Gilad, however, declined, explaining that Shariki's culinary preferences, which he described as "all sorts of fish," did not appeal to him. He stated his preference for dishes like "all sorts of sprouts with interesting spices."

Shariki confirmed Gilad's decision, asking if he would be appearing with his "other partner" on Tuesday, to which Gilad affirmed. Shariki then announced that the new season of "The Winning Kitchen" was set to premiere on Tuesday, expressing his amused disappointment that Gilad chose to partner with someone else, described as a "friend from the past, a friend from the present, a former partner."

Shariki's attempts to get a taste of the food during the broadcast were also rebuffed, with Gilad offering him a sip of his tea instead. When Shariki inquired if he could keep the apron as a souvenir, Gilad stated he was not part of the production. Undeterred, Shariki concluded that he would approach the management of Keshet 12 regarding the apron.
