Tonight Hell's Kitchen started off the top 5 with a reward challenge that any chef would kill for. A photo shoot for Bon Appetit magazine. The Hell's Kitchen chefs had to make a signature dish that would be judged by the editors of Bon Appetit magazine. First the chefs would be judged on presentation; the final two would be judged on taste.
Here are the Hell's Kitchen Top 5 recipes
Tennille was out from the start when her fish broke while plating. Her 'pile o' fish' dish did not get her any awards.
Suzanne made.... a salad. Yes, that should get you into a magazine. It has to look like a salad from Eden... hers did not.
Dave became completely tongue-tied for the judges. What he lost in words, he evidently made up for in presentation. The judges were torn between Dave and Ariele for top two.
Ariel had a nice light dish that was very photograph friendly.
Kevin did a beautiful fish (what else) and fruit. It was presented beautifully and came out in first place.
Joining Kevin in the tasting part of the competition was Ariel's dish. The judges were torn and chose not to decide. Both Kevin and Ariel won the reward and the photo shoot. Their dishes will be featured in Bon Appitit magazine.
On to dinner service. It was another night of hell in the kitchen. Starting with overcooked rice and risoto from Kevin (what?!) and Tennille (I really want to call them Captain and Tonille)
Suzanne overcooked scallops and undercooked fish. Bad, bad mistakes from a chef in Hell's Kitchen.
Ariel has fallen apart. She was my early pick to finish with Kevin in the Hell's Kitchen finale, but has gotten worse every week. This week, pink chicken... oh BLEEP!
Dave did not get called out tonight, but sorta played helper monkey to everyone else. Not hard to hide under the radar. His arm may send him home next week.
No one chef won the night. Chef Ramsay finally told them all to just decide on two to go on the chopping block. I really thought Gordan Ramsay was going to stroke out at one point during service. This has got to be his hardest season yet.
Ariel and Suzanne were nominated to go up face Chef Ramsay for possible elimination. Suzanne was finally sent packing from Hell's Kitchen. It was her 4th time facing Ramsay and as he said, "Suzanne had a red jacket, a blue jacket and a black jacket...and now she has no jacket."
