Our eight competing chefs meet the judges: Dakota Weiss, J. Kenji-Alt, and legendary head judge, Chef Morimoto. They'll need to prove their mastery of fundamental sushi skills in the first challenge, because one chef will be eliminated.

The six remaining chefs compete in a three-round ‘conveyor belt sushi tournament'. In the end, two chefs will battle it out to see who keeps their place in the competition.
