In this heat, four chefs face a nail-biting elimination round. In front of the watching Monica and Gregg, they have to earn the right to cook for the legendary Michel by demonstrating their culinary expertise with a skills test of boning out an oxtail and a palate test of dressing a salad. Our remaining three chefs then face two more grueling tests for an expectant Michel and Gregg: first they must make two dishes in 50 minutes from the central ingredient of guinea fowl; then they must recreate two classic dishes of sole duglere and apple beignets with caramel sauce.
