In the kitchens of the luxury palace Peninsula in Paris, the five remaining contestants first faced a series of particularly demanding challenges focused on palace gastronomy.
Starting with a high-performance athlete’s breakfast, creating sauces for a white fish, and then reinventing the croque-monsieur, the competitors tackled challenges under the watchful eyes of Philippe Etchebest, Hélène Darroze, Paul Pairet, Glenn Viel, and Stéphanie Le Quellec.
