Smells like Team Spirit

Lyrica sets up this week’s theme: teamwork. In their fastest Ikouze Challenge yet, the chefs work in pairs, using assigned ingredients and Japanese cooking techniques to prepare a delicious, composed dish. For the Kesshou Challenge, the winning pair choose new teams of three chefs each. Each team must create a pop-up restaurant concept with dishes that compete head-to-head. A surprise guest judge joins the judging panel, and the chef with the worst dish on the losing team goes home.
