Who makes the final 3?

Alex is lucky to still be there imo. She got through cooking chicken and chips ffs. Reckon she may go tonight.

Reckon Narmin will win if he cooks well, mainly because John and Greg have a fetish for anything spicy.

Just catching uo on Mondays episode.
Wrong decision I think. Alex should have gone. Under ambitious dish that Greg actually said he didn't want to eat part of.
Think Moonira tried to refine her food and the judges missed a trick.

Reckon it might be Kenny that goes.

Excellent episode from Peru. Nawamin is forging ahead. Has a great understanding of flavors.
That piranha dish looked fantastic.

cowtownred · « **Reply #44 on:** April 12, 2018, 09:40:46 pm »

Must admit I couldn't eat half the dishes they prepare! Far too highbrow for me, but their talent is incredible. Think Kenny got lucky tonight, thought Alex food looked better. Still think Thai Doc is favourite, but the last 6 have all been really talented.

planet-terror · « **Reply #45 on:** April 12, 2018, 10:02:36 pm »

Great episode. Thought the right three went through although Moonira should have been there instead of Alex.
Looking forward to a grand final.

Christ that challenge tonight from the Michelin Star chef was insane

It looked so difficult and highly technical

No surprise the 3 finalists are a Doctor, Pilot and Bank manager. I'm not generalising here but I'd guess you can't be a thick fucker (like me) to be a top...top chef

Nisha, Alex, Moonira and Greg all had good jobs too.

I agree.

You are a thick fucker Pete.

Thought he was the underdog going in. Fair play though. He nailed the final.

cowtownred · « **Reply #51 on:** April 13, 2018, 10:43:52 pm »

Pity Nawamin bombed his final, thought he was far and away the best. Great competition though, high standards.

Yeah he did nail the final and he really wanted it throughout. He also looked to the guy who was enjoying it most too.

I think out of the 3 finalists, and in my opinion he is most likely and most committed to make a career as a Chef although they could all probably do it what we have seen on TV.

Amazing standard this year. Especially the last 8.

Seems like yesterday you entrusted me with Ben (you fool!)

Not enjoying tonight's show.... I hate these fucking hooray henry types. Wankers.

😀

Only just watched the final. Was gutted the Doc didn’t win but all three were excellent.

Upinsmoke · « **Reply #58 on:** April 22, 2018, 08:26:08 pm »

Only just watched the final of this. Kenny shouldn't of even been in the final 3 for me. He made a cock up twice prior but they completely disregarded it. Once again all it boils down to is how well you cook when John and Greg are eating your food. All the things in between are irrelevant it seems.

Matt Campbell, from The Professionals (semi-finalist), has died whilst doing the London marathon

So, so sad.

Upinsmoke · « **Reply #60 on:** April 23, 2018, 12:02:35 pm »

Just seen that. So fucked up.

He seemed really gifted as a chef too. Had some cool ideas.

Alot of his dishes were really healthy as well so he was clearly health conscious.

RIP

Really horrible news that

Just reading the 2017 thread and remembered he was the favourite right up until the semi finals when he was eliminated. Was a pretty unpopular decision at the time

Shepnois · « **Reply #63 on:** April 23, 2018, 02:39:27 pm »

Damn I remember him well, he was by far the most talented chef in that series. He took risks and came up with stuff I had never seen before. Clearly very health conscious and had done a marathon just last week, really sad news.

Two lads last week were pretty good. None this week really standing out.

The chicken sandwich really threw them, was funny to see.

Flambeing Marcus Wearings head in DDT, would be a fantastic starter to an evening meal.

Excellent. I am not sure if it counts as a guilty pleasure, but I do love it in all its forms. That said, I do miss those early series where in the initial rounds there were people who struggled to boil an egg. The standard has improved year on year.
