Aruna really did a good job as a team captain today. Her biggest quality as a leader was she didn't get involved with the cooking, she was supervising. On the other hand Priyanka was cooking continuously till the end when she should've just been supervising. Her whole plan was weak from the get go. Choosing wrong team members, delegating dishes to wrong people, overworking, lack of communication and a lot of unnecessary over confidence. Throughout her sound byte she kept blaming everybody when the biggest person to blame was herself. How can you realize the coffee you were planning to serve hot has become a cold coffee at the end of the challenge? She should've continuously been tasting the stuff on all the counters. Also didn't Dyuti make some caramel stuff yesterday which was tasting bitter? Where was that in their menu today? Whole green team was in a mess. On top of that Shanta thought it would be genius to blow torch a pizza 😆 So glad Garima told them off immediately.
I liked that both of Deepa's elements shined bright today. I'm just waiting for her to show her magic. I feel she has a lot of potential and ideas and somehow till now it just wasn't falling in place. Aruna clearly misjudged the main course. Should've allocated atleast two people in the beginning to make the main course.
Overall more than the dishes, I really enjoyed whoever designed the challenge today. I liked that it was a very detailed challenge including the round where the captain would be chosen on the basis of a technical challenge - which was something new for MasterChef I believe. The whole concept of serving four courses along with spreading it over two episodes for a detailed coverage and the judges always explaining the parts of a proper Italian cuisine menu was very refreshing to see. Hope to see more such challenges. I'm waiting for something to happen outdoors. They are always more fun.
