- The final 3 contestants had to create a soufflé, the chef who came closest to creating the soufflé had the 1st pick in selecting an ingredient to make for service: beef, chicken or tuna, the chef that came in 2nd, can only choose what was left, the chef that came in last didn't have a choice.—assmn316
- Challenge: The three finalists were tasked to create a soufflé in 10 minutes. Ralph won, with Michael second.
Reward: Ralph received first choice in selecting a dish to make for service: beef, chicken, or tuna. Ralph chose beef and Michael chose tuna, leaving Jessica with chicken.
Service: Unbeknownst to the chefs, their families (Michael's wife and in-laws, Jessica's mother, sister, and partner, Ralph's fiancée, mother, and uncle) attended service and blindly voted for their favorite dish. Jessica got overwhelmed on soufflés and needed help from Ralph and Michael, but eventually service was completed and every customer was served. Ralph's filet was ordered the most often, Michael's tuna was the least ordered.
Elimination: Out of nine votes, Michael's tuna received 5 (including all of Ralph's family members), Ralph's filet received 3, and Jessica's chicken received only 1 (her sister). Ramsay eliminated Jessica for having the fewest votes.
Jessica's comment: "Chef Ramsay was amazing, I mean it was such an honor to work under him. I worked hard, and ya know, smart, and think that's what helped me get this far, so no regrets at all. This was such a great experience and something I'll hold with me for the rest of my life."
Ramsay's comment: "Now that we're down to the final two, this is it. But the fascinating thing about these two guys is they're both equally as good as one another. And this is where they have to now separate, put everything they've learned from Hell's Kitchen and show me what they're made of. That's what I'm looking for."
