The ultimate culinary challenge for Britain's top chefs. Two chefs go head to head to buy food, prepare dishes and sell them to diners at some of the country's most diverse and high-end restaurants. Selling more dishes than their rival and winning the competition has never been more important.
The chefs putting their own money and reputations on the line are John Burton-Race, Nick Nairn, Gino D'Acampo, Aldo Zilli, James Tanner, Paul Rankin, Ed Baines, Atul Kochhar, Richard Phillips and Galton Blackiston.
Top chefs Galton Blackiston and Ed Baines are tested to the limit as they take on the challenge of cooking in a high-end Chinese restaurant. This well-known and much-loved cuisine is technically incredibly demanding for chefs used to Western cooking, and Galton and Ed must draw on any experience they have of this difficult style to please a roomful of demanding regulars. The chefs will be up against each other with one starter, one main course and one dessert each. The diners choose between the dishes, and whoever makes the most profit wins.
