It's the final at Amélies, a seafood restaurant in the Cornish coastal town of Porthleven. Over the week, Alex offered up nine candidates to be put through a rigorous interview process.

Owner Sam is upset to discover that two finalists have decided her restaurant is too remote to continue with the interview process, so Alex jumps in to redo the shortlist. Their challenge is a tough one - to produce a three course wedding menu to be tested by a restaurant full of Sam's family and friends. They will also have to manage a brigade of chefs testing not only their cooking skills, but also their ability to run a kitchen. As service continues, the cracks begin to show with a disastrously burnt main course and an undercooked pear desert. It's all hands on deck if the hungry diners are going to be fed. The pressure begins to take its toll on Sam - should she make her decision based on her head or her heart? At the end of the night, one candidate will be selected to become the new head chef - and it's a tough decision.

But at the end of the week only one can get the job. The first three candidates are put through a gruelling hands-on interview process. In the first skill test, who can identify the fish and then make the right choice for starters?

The tandoor skill test puts chefs immediately under pressure to produce an authentic tandoori chicken. Can Bindi's infectious enthusiasm and years of home cooking fit into a professional kitchen or will her lack or restaurant know-how be her undoing? Mark is the most experienced candidate but has no professional experience of cooking Indian food - however, maybe his maverick fusion approach could be just what they need. And when it comes to costs, who will be bang on the money? There's only one place left in tomorrow's final and the pressure is on.

June 26, 2015
It's the final at Potli, a restaurant serving Indian market food in the heart of Hammersmith. Over the week, Alex has offered up nine candidates to be put through a rigorous interview process. It's now the final interview. With just two candidates having secured their places, it's back to the shortlist to give one chef a golden opportunity. Their challenge is the ultimate test - to produce an authentic three-course menu to be tested by a restaurant full of owners Jay and Uttam's toughest critics... their loyal regulars. The candidates also have to manage a brigade of chefs testing not only their cooking skills but also their ability to run a kitchen. When true expectations come to light, it calls for a tough early decision to be made. Will an Indian variation of fish and chips delight or dismay? Can an out-of-this-world dessert be enough to sweeten the deal? And can the chefs work together to run a smooth service and satisfy the owners and diners' demands? At the end of the night, one candidate will be selected to become the new head chef - and it's a tough decision.
