Last night the first part of the ‘Masterchef Celebrity’ final took place. After confirming that this last episode would be split in two, the culinary program of Pepe Rodríguez, Samantha Vallejo-Nágera and Jordi Cruz finally chose the two duelists and those applicants who were left out.
Last effort
If the previous gala ended with Lorena Castell getting a tattoo, this one began with Manu Baqueiro tattooing the M for ‘Masterchef’ as he had promised. As for the first test of the night, it consisted of the classic “follow the chef”, in which the applicants had to cook at the same time as the famous chef Oriol Castro. Lorraine was the one that did it best and, therefore, the first contestant to advance to the final duel.
For the outdoor test, they moved to the Mandarin Oriental Ritz hotel in Madrid, where Manu, Patricia and María Escoté had to prepare a menu designed by chef Quique Dacosta and serve it to ten renowned chefs. Each of the applicants was in charge of making one of the dishes on the menu.
This test ended up surpassing patricia countwhich was overwhelmed and temporarily abandoned cooking. Manu tried to cheer her up and there was an unexpected kiss between them, but by the time she took Patricia’s plate back, she was already very late and she didn’t make an effort to recover. The judges expressed their disappointment that she gave up being one step away from the last test.
Finally, Manu became the second duelist who will face Lorena in tonight’s test. “I don’t believe I’m where I am” he said excitedly when they handed him the jacket. That left María and Patricia as the next two eliminated who couldn’t make it to the end.
Tonight at 10:15 p.m. the final test of ‘Masterchef Celebrity’ will be broadcast, followed by a discussion that will feature the judges, the winner or winner of this season 7 and the rest of the finalists.
