This was a very extreme Iron Chef type round as it should be. Must use a whole duck, kohlrabi, a turning slicer, breakfast, lunch and dinner, and cooking time 60 min.

It seems that some of the recruits either went home and brushed up on their cooking skills or got a lot of guidance between the scenes, since a lot of the food was, maybe not fantastic, but edible. They all collectively need a crash course on how to turn on a stove top, be enlightened that[...]

Seemingly, this will be a very long journey as the teams are composed of a contestants who use hammers instead of knives, pantyhose[...]

Always reminds me of a mash-up of Netflix's comedy cooking competition Nailed It and professional chefs with bizarre ingredient competition Chopped The kitchen might as well be a foreign ingredient for the contestants and the end products remind me of a crime scene. Food Network Our primary judge, quirky personality chef Anne Burrell, is expected this season[...]

A delightful cooking competition, and a pleasure to watch – would have enjoyed it if it extended to six episodes.

Netflix's Nailed It! host/comedian Nicole Byer and co-host Jacques Torres invite Ashley Tisdale and Brent Morin from Merry Happy Whatever to compete in

The man had absolutely no say in the decision making of this meal, but rather took second chair to his bossy partner complying with her every whip, I mean whim.  Judges granted them the win, they seemed to really like their white cheddar grits…I disagreed. ● Round 2, and the battle was on!
