Ultimate Instant Restaurants

[edit]
  • Episodes 16 to 20
  • Airdate — 28 October to 11 November 2024
  • Description — For the start of the finals round, the Top 5 teams head around the country once again in an Ultimate Instant Restaurant round. All teams have to cook two dishes of each course (entree, main and dessert) for their fellow finalists and judges for scoring. Guests have a choice of choosing one of the options per course while the judges Manu and Colin each taste one of the two options. The lowest scoring team is eliminated as the remaining four teams are ranked into the semifinals.

For the first time, open scoring was introduced for the other teams. Meaning all teams had to tell everyone how they score, controversially it was done after Rob & Liam had already been scored instead of before informing them.[4]
