Potli Final

BBC Two - Alex Polizzi: Chefs on Trial, Potli Final

The chefs must produce an authentic three-course menu to be tested by loyal regulars.

Alex Polizzi searches for head chefs. It's the final at Potli, an Indian restaurant in London. The chefs must produce an authentic three-course menu to be tested by loyal regulars.

It's the final at Potli, a restaurant serving Indian market food in the heart of Hammersmith. Over the week, Alex has offered up nine candidates to be put through a rigorous interview process. It's now the final interview. With just two candidates having secured their places, it's back to the shortlist to give one chef a golden opportunity.
 
Their challenge is the ultimate test - to produce an authentic three-course menu to be tested by a restaurant full of owners Jay and Uttam's toughest critics... their loyal regulars. The candidates also have to manage a brigade of chefs testing not only their cooking skills but also their ability to run a kitchen.
 
When true expectations come to light, it calls for a tough early decision to be made. Will an Indian variation of fish and chips delight or dismay? Can an out-of-this-world dessert be enough to sweeten the deal? And can the chefs work together to run a smooth service and satisfy the owners' and diners' demands?
 
At the end of the night, one candidate will be selected to become the new head chef - and it's a tough decision.
