Once again, this new round of teams had five and a half hours to play with, following months and months of preparation. The tests they had to endure were the catfish-based plate, in addition to the tray challenge, where a sumptuous presentation of quail meat was expected.
The impression was that, in general, the level has risen and that it is getting higher and higher. Hungary stood out with its very candid fish dish, balanced from a chromatic point of view "Ideal for lunch, very versatile," commented chef Régis Marcon.
