Pierre khoury junior masterchef biography
•
Pierre has always been the small kid at school, but he believes good things come in small packages – especially after being chosen to be in the Top 12 of Junior MasterChef.
Watching his grandmother Josephine cook traditional Lebanese dishes from his high chair when he was little, Pierre soon discovered his love for food and began to help out in the kitchen.
Pierre loves cooking because it makes him happy and transports him into another world. His favourite judge is Matt because of his larger-than-life personality, and he’s inspired by MasterChef 2010 contestant Callum.
When Pierre grows up he wants to be an engineer or open a theatre restaurant so his sisters and cousins can perform in it.

MasterChef Junior made them reality TV stars, so how did the show change their lives?
There are big changes ahead for MasterChef Australia as the show's three judges, now household names, depart after a decade.
MasterChef Australia is often credited with changing lives and making careers. Just ask Adam Liaw or Poh Ling Yeow.
But what about the tweens who signed up to compete in the junior version of the show?
It was almost half their lifetime ago, back in 2010, that 12 children aged 12 and under were selected from more than 5,000 applicants to compete in Australia's first series of Junior MasterChef.
So what was it like being a kid on MasterChef? And almost a decade later, how has the experience shaped their lives?
Most have abandoned their "food dream" but the experience of appearing on MasterChef was lifechanging nonetheless.
Six contestants from that first series of Junior MasterChef Australia explain.
