Ollie s life is a recipe for disaster.

Ollie and Julian are identical twins, but they couldn t be more different: Ollie love sports and is the local footy champ, while Julian is a quiet achiever who spends most of his time in the kitchen, cooking. Much to Ollie s surprise, Julian enters the Junior Maestro Chef competition and is going to be on national television. Ollie s used to being the centre of attention is their household so he s not happy when his parents spend all their time quizzing Julian on ingredients for recipes rather than watching Ollie play footy. But when Julian falls ill before the taping of the show s finale, it s up to Ollie to pretend to be his brother and cook up a storm.
