16 Chefs Compete
April 10
Last time, the men learned that time and food wasted was money wasted, as they were forced to roll 200,000 pennies while the women, who won a ravioli challenge, spent the day in Beverly Hills. The trip must have been a godsend, because the women came together and beat the men six ways from Sunday in the Dinner Service, marking the first time a dinner service was won AND ending the three-episode skid of horrendous food coming out of HK. Mike tried to make a play to cook for the women. That... didn't work out so well. He ended up on the fast-track home, and then there were 16.

CHALLENGE #5: Kitchen-tration

After pairing up in teams of two, the chefs will have to play a game of concentration to determine what they're going to cook, matching a protein - chicken breast, swordfish, ahi, and pork chop - with a side dish. Most points wins.

CHICKEN:
Melanie/Rochelle: Chicken with polenta
Anton/Richard: Chicken with cappellini
WINNER: BOTH (Tied at 1)

PORK:
Chris/DeMarco: Cranberry & Fig Stuffed Pork Roulade with Potato Puree (which Chris made himself)
Jessica/Kashia: Pork-Chop with Corn & Potato
WINNER: BLUE (Blues lead, 2-1)

AHI
Sandra/Beth: Tuna with Crispy Noodles
Jason/Gabriel: Seared Tuna with couscous, kale & pasta
WINNER: RED (Tied at 2)

SWORDFISH:
Ralph/Scott: Basmati rice & Swordfish with Hollandaise
Joy/Bev: Swordfish with saffron chili bean broth
WINNER: .... RED (Red wins, 3-2)

The ladies are going to spend a day at the beach. Laguna Beach, to be exact. Meanwhile, the Blues have a sweet punishment ahead of them. They're going to harvest honey directly from the comb... and use that honey to make 100 pounds of honey taffy.

As can be expected, one team got sun, the other got... stung.

The next day, the chefs get an early morning wake-up call, because they are going to take part in the first ever Hell's Kitchen wedding brunch. That's right, a couple actually wants to have their wedding at Hell's Kitchen, to be followed by a brunch reception afterwards. And we're catering.

For this service, the men are serving the family of the groom, while the women will be serving the family of the bride.

"DINNER" SERVICE #5: Wedding Brunch

The appetizers, a nice fruit salad, go out without incident. Because who messes up a fruit salad?

Now the tricky bit. Before any other wedding guests are served, the wedding party table must first be served. And all of the dishes must be served at the same time. Both kitchens have issue with that, as Beth ruins an eggs Benedict, while Ralph cooks in a greasy pan with no heat. Beth's second try on eggs... was compared to "snot on your wedding day". Kashia & Rochelle pitch-hit on the stations to get the women's dishes out to the bride before the men can finish on the groom's dishes.

From then on, brunch runs... surprisingly smoothly until the last ticket. Gabriel and Richard can't scramble eggs, while Beth has more issue with eggs. Ultimately, though, the women finish their tickets for their second straight win over the men, who must now send two to Ramsay for evaluation.

The lesson here... never get married on television.

ELIMINATION #5

After another argument in the dorms, DeMarco and Gabriel were sent forward, DeMarco for the fifth time. You would think that Ramsay would finally put him out of his misery. But first... c'mere, Richard. He held the men back as much as either of the nominees did.

But in the end... DEMARCO finally gives up the ghost.

"DeMarco: Demented, demoted, denied."
