Večera za 5 (English: Dinner for 5, also known as Večera za 5 na selu) is a Croatian reality television cooking show based on the British television series Come Dine with Me. The series follows a group of contestants rating the meals they prepared for each other; the highest-scoring contestant receives a prize.
It is the longest-running reality television series in Croatia, with over 1000 episodes having been broadcast since 2007.
Format
The show employs a weekly format; each cycle consist of one week, i.e. of five episodes that air from Monday to Friday. Each day, one of the five selected contestants prepares a three-course dinner for others. The contestants rate each other's dinners, with the highest-scoring contestant being declared the winner of the week and earning a monetary prize.
History
The series first debuted on 14 May 2007 and ran until 29 June 2012. During this period, a host was featured who visited the contestants and accompanied them through the dinner preparation process. The hosts were Antonija Blaće (2007), Lorena Nosić (2008), Marko Lušić (2008–2009), Belma Hodžić (2009–2010), and Ivan Šarić (2010–2012).
After a hiatus, the series was revived in 2019 under the title Večera za 5 na selu (English: Dinner for 5 at the Countryside). The format remained the same, but the contestant were people from rural areas of Croatia with the emphasis on preparing traditional meals specific for their region. A host was no longer featured; an off-screen narrator, who interviewed the contestant during their meal preparation and provided commentary during dinner, was present instead.
In August 2023, the series returned to airing under its original title, Večera za 5.
