Last night was the last elimination challenge before the finale in New Orleans. Chef Wylie Dufresne, Jacques Pepin,and other culinary leaders appeared in the episode. The quickfire challenge was judged by Wylie Dufresne who is known for his molecular gastronomy. The challenge was to create a dish with eggs in it. Carla won the quickfire challenge with her green eggs and ham. Wylie said that she did one dish and that it was executed well. The elimination challenge was to cook a last supper for five culinary leaders. The leaders told the chefs what their last meals would be and they had to cook them. Carla got Jacques Pepin and decided to keep him instead of swap dishes with a fellow chef which was her advantage for winning the quickfire challenge. Leah got Wylie who wanted eggs Benedict. Carla got Pepin who wanted squaw and peas. Fabio’s dish was chicken, salad, and potatoes. Stefan’s was spinach and salmon, and Hosea’s was shrimp scampi. In the end the top two were Carla and Fabio. Fabio had even broken his pinkie finger when he was making the food, but he trudged on and was named the winner. Leah, Stefa, and Hosea were the bottom three. Stefan had overcooked his salmon and Leah’s eggs were a little undercooked.Hosea’s dish was not a traditional scampi. In the end, Leah went home and the chefs celebrated that they were heading to New Orleans for the finale!
