This was the first challenge in Bravo's Top Chef competition where everyone truly had to work together. The task was certainly the largest to date, though last week's restaurant design challenge was not at all easy. The quickfire and main challenges were combined, for this episode, though the chefs did not know that when they started out. If they had, things would have gone a little differently.
Upon arriving at the quickfire challenge, the chefs were introduced to Scott and Scott, a gay couple that would be having their commitment ceremony very soon. They were asked to create a wedding menu for 100 people with 5 courses, including an hors d'oeuvre that used prawns and a wedding cake, all on a $3,000 budget. "The Scotts" asked for something with an Asian flair. Everyone had imaginative ideas, though the other chefs criticized Dave's menu for being too simplistic. Dave, on the other hand, was the only one who had substantial catering experience and he had purposely designed his menu to be relatively simple and full of dishes that almost anyone would enjoy. In the end, the Scotts choose LeeAnne's menu (after her joke about being the only actual Asian competitor), which was as follows:
Soy and chickpeas might help stroke victims
The world of pie and tart crusts
Starbucks launches the Piadini
