Finals week begins with six chefs remaining. To win a place at the infamous Chef's Table, each must cook a dish that is dedicated to someone special. This round is all about passion and skill, and the judges' verdict will decide which two chefs will be leaving the competition and which four will be cooking at the Chef's Table.
Due to Covid-19, this year's Chef's Table is held at the MasterChef kitchen. The contenders must prepare their course for eight of the country's most acclaimed chefs, who have been hand-picked for this exclusive event and hold a remarkable 11 Michelin stars between them. They include Matt Abé, Nieves Barragan Mohacho, Michael Caines, Lisa Goodwin-Allen and Daniel Clifford. Cooking for these culinary giants is a huge honour, and the contenders must use their chance to stand out, get noticed and win the praise from the very best in the hospitality industry. They have three hours to deliver one exceptional dish that demonstrates their personal flair, technique and presentation skills. Nothing can go amiss in this round, as the chefs at the table are seeking perfection.
