On its third season, the show presented another segment called "Turo Tours" wherein the show went around Metro Manila and some provinces with a six-wheeler mobile kitchen-studio. The said segment aims to bring the show closer to its audience by giving them a chance to witness the chef's actual cooking and taping sessions plus treat them to a free taste of every dish that the chef concocts in the show. The truck is robotically programmed to self-assemble and disassemble with the press of a button and is loaded with a working kitchen and built-in audio and lighting equipment. It also carries its own power supply, which powers its robotic stage and roof assembly. Apart from "Turo Tours", several other segments were introduced like "Market Basket Challenge", "Cook-along" and "Master Fiesta Dish".
The fourth season introduced another segment called "Kusina Master for the Day". The segment featured a chef that is known for his or her own signature dish.
