Damn, lol Priyanka cribbing over chef Manav cooking against her looks was annoying. 😆

Me too I fast forward everything so I don’t even know what I watch today.

I think there was some board, something with eggs, and Priyanka faces off a chef tomorrow.

I swear if she beats the chef, then they are lining her up for the win. If she doesn't, then good. You can't beat a well established chef. That's just not possible without some "editing".

Todays episode was literally a filler like many said. I’d rather they do one more task, than drag the immunity pin challenge for 3 days.

Anyway coming back to the episode, it started with judges tasting Aruna’s teams dish. It was nothing like planned and the dish was critiqued fairly. Plating, textures and even flavours were spoken about. One thing I didn’t like was Aruna’s comment - that no matter who does wrong, the captain always gets blamed. In this case, clearly she made the biggest mistake of not thinking of her team mates while choosing her dish and ingredients. Yesterday, Deepa graciously accepted that she was at fault and the reason for failure.

Sachins teams dish was clearly very good. Except for that huge chocolate piece, everything else was praised, the texture, the flavour, their co - ordination. Without taking any credit away from Nayanjyoti and Priyanka who did a fab job, full credit must be given to the captain for playing to his teams strength.

If Aruna's team had won the first task then what would have Aruna done in egg ravioli challenge😕quit again😕

Good question. I don’t think there would have been egg ravioli challenge then

Let's say their team purposefully lost the challenge so she can avoid making eggs😊

Anything for conspiracy theory

Lol, but all are at fault here & there. 😆Obviously, Aruna's definitely at fault for failing to explain the description of her dish and it looked flavorless based on what Kdk stated. Not stating about the oil, having expectations of better roulade by Kdk/Gurkirat when she herself never made one so far in this challenge, and feeling overconfident at times. I felt Kdk was somewhat lost herself and I can't fully blame her because the dish's description, to be frank, was vague and I think Aruna said that she wasn't fully sure of the direction of the dish at that point. Gurkirat looked maha-lost in the episode and just felt like he was like "oh let's just do whatever's remaining here" w/o even looking at the basket. All team members were at fault in some form or the other.

Yes, Gurkirat and KDK couldn’t make the dish Aruna had thought of, but that’s because they haven’t ever cooked with most of the ingredients. And Aruna should’ve known that while as someone who lives in South India, she’s aware of these ingredients, others may not be. She should’ve chosen to use something relatively more well known. Had she chosen something else, chances that Gurkirat and KDK would’ve managed a good dish would be high.

So yes, both of them couldn’t cook well, but I don’t 100% blame them for it

Charcuterie board challenge for immunity pin ---

Decision based on presentation was stupid as always, IMO. But, I also feel the cook needs to learn to present properly at the same time if cooking more than one time. I feel the cribbing over preparation was bit overdone, because fruits can add color to the board.

Coming to participants, only Sachin started to stand out because he was focused on his board unlike Priyanka who was clearly jealous of Sachin's chopping speed and Nayanjyoti who looked lost since plating was taking up his time. Priyanka getting lettuce at last minute, kinda made me wondered what would've been the scenario if the amul pantry was closed. 😆

Presentation wise- Sachin's was pretty cool but certain portions were bit clumsy, so I advise him to work better on presentation. Priyanka- I felt the lettuce was bit extra for the protein to be sat. Could've used a bowl, tbh. Also, again presentation could be improved. Nayanjyoti's presentation was okay from the center with the meat/salami rosette in a bowl but proportion felt inadequate.

Egg ravioli challenge---

Sachin's pasta maker was moving a lot thus was bit worried, how it would come out. Priyanka needs to focus on her game more than Sachin lol. Lol, she also looked a bit lost at times over the thin layering of the pasta.

Priyanka's 1st one clearly had a whole visible whereas Sachin's had different pasta layering sizes. From the 2nd one, Sachin's looked better whereas Priyanka's had folds in them. Sachin's just started to float but I think he rushed to plate it + was looking slightly thick.

3rd one - Sachin's ravioli looked better whereas there are still folds in Priyanka's one. Crap, Sachin took it out too fast, I mean it just started floating. Ranveer looked bit rude towards Sachin for some reason despite the feedback, dunno it's like cold vibes or something.

About yesterdays Ravioli, in round two, they should’ve already given it to Sachin, but they didn’t want to give it to him. He’s clearly not anyone’s favourite. They want him to leave this week.

In every other week, one team is saved from eliminations, this week Sachins team should be safe (since there are no more team tasks this week), but it won’t happen this week.
I would love to be wrong, I really want Sachin to stay, especially after the growth he’s shown. But even if he stays this week, he’ll be out next week. They won’t keep him on longer

I did not like how Priyanka got to the next round even though Sachin's raviolis were better. They could have made it a tie so both can try for the next round.
