Legendary double Michelin-starred chef Michel Roux Jr and Masterchef dining expert Gregg Wallace are on the hunt for a young chef who has what it takes to go to the top of the culinary world. It is the quarter-final, and six successful chefs must first show Michel and Gregg they have the necessary skills and palate by cooking a dish of their own invention. At the end of this first round, two of the contestants will be going home. The four remaining chefs must then cook their own two-course menu for some of the UK's harshest food critics. Only two will make it through to the semi-finals, and a step closer to winning the title of Professional Masterchef.
