Surprise Banishment

In a surprise twist, one chef will be banished at the end of the contender battle, setting up a potential double elimination. The intensity is sky high as the chefs create handheld dishes for their survival in the game. One contender confidently makes a signature dish while another races against the clock and risks serving the Culinary Council undercooked meat. The banished chef exits the arena and makes a stunning career announcement, and one contender becomes the first to willingly challenge the ruler for the throne.
