S1 E9 Amelies Heat 1

本集简介

Alex tackles Amélies, a harbour-side seafood restaurant in the picturesque town of Porthleven in Cornwall. Owner Sam Sheffield Dunstan gave up a high-flying career in London five years ago to fulfil a lifetime ambition of opening a restaurant. However, her dream is turning into a nightmare as she has failed to attract the right head chef to such a remote location. She's now turned to Alex in desperation to help find the right person.

Over a week, Alex will offer up nine candidates to be put through a rigorous interview process. As well as testing their technical cooking skills, all candidates will have a face-to-face interview and a chance to cook a signature dish which shows off their culinary flair. But at the end of the week only one can get the job.

Miners Arms Final

The finalists' challenge is to produce a three-course menu embracing local ingredients for a restaurant full of regular diners. They will also have to manage a brigade of chefs, testing not only their cooking skills but also their ability to run a kitchen. With the promise of a head chef position on offer, the tension in the kitchen is high. With both candidates neck and neck after the starter and main course, it all rests on the dessert. One candidate fails to initially impress with the underwhelming choice of cheesecake, which tastes surprisingly good, whereas the other produces an intricate chocolate feast for the eyes - but it fails to taste of chocolate.

At the end of the night, Alex and the owners will select one candidate to become their new head chef.

Amelies Heat 2

In the first heat, the first successful candidate was put through to the final. Now the next three candidates are put through the gruelling hands-on interview process.

After failing to impress with a soggy starter, amiable Irishman Barry hopes to impress with a daring main course of hare and rainbow pasta. Can experienced chef Paul stop talking long enough to convince owner Sam he is the right fit for her restaurant, and will 20-year-old Chris's fearless decision to put a duo of lamb on a seafood restaurant menu prove to be his undoing?

Competition is intense, as only one will be selected to go through to the final interview.
