Team challenge. It's quite obvious they are setting up red team for the win again. It has Suraj, Nambi, and Rukshar and judges don't like Harry, so obviously blue team will go to elimination unless this time they've decided one of the Ks is going.

I take this back. It looks like Nidhi learnt from the last team challenge and is a better captain and the blue team is working better. Rukshar went the opposite way and the red team went the opposite way as well.

It feels like the teams were set up this way so that the chefs can show they aren't biased and make the blue team win. Though based on today's episode it isn't easy to say which way it'll go.

The precap is definitely very vague so that they don't give away which team is going to win.

I’m kind of disappointed that the same two people are captain again, but it’s co incidence.

I’m surprised at the teams though, both were giving good players to the opposite team. If I were Rukhsaar, I wouldn’t give Ashiq away. The first person I’d give away was Harry, since she chose who to give first, she could’ve ended up with two strong players. I know she thought by giving Ashiq, Nidhi would return the favour and give away Nambi. What she didn’t realize is that she was giving away players first, if she wanted she could’ve still had Nambi! Bad move I must say, unless she wanted Harry!

Nidhi’s team menu isn’t particularly exciting given the theme - street food. She’s serving - paniyaram, papdi chaat, Prawn popcorn, chicken cannoli. Paniyaram isn’t well known outside south India, chicken cannoli whole something different doesn’t really sound like street food to me.

Rukhsaars team is making Pani puri, jhal muri (Bengali bhelpuri), nadur monjhe (fried lotus stem) and a idli burger. Except for the lotus stem other foodstuffs are atleast known.

For the moment Rukhsaars team is all over the place. There seems to be utter chaos in their kitchen? While Nidhi’s kitchen is relatively calmer. But it seems like Aashiq is doing most of the work. With two vegetarians in the team, they shouldn’t have added more than one meat element, considering Aashiq will have to work on it all alone.
My feeling is Nidhi’s team will win this time, just so that not everything is the same like the last time. But let’s wait and watch.

I’ve started watching the show on YouTube and they don’t show a precap!

Hate me for my opinion but I'd rather have Nidhi's team win as they seem less chaotic & group work relatively seems much better. As team members, they are communicating about the tasks & activities to be performed. I feel Ashiq's tension & pressure is justified since he's the only one who eats non-veg. I do observe that Harry's working but less compared to Nidhi & Aashiq who's contributing more.

I see only Suraj's the actual captain, IMO as I felt, at times, Rukhsar was taking a backseat. Also, I was kinda pissed seeing the overall menus from the team because majority of the items have been made or are known. I believe Nadru has been made by Rukhsar in the past so, overall, I wish the menu was better devised.

I feel the judges should decide who should be on whom's team rather than let Rukhsar make the first decision as I feel that's showing partiality towards Rukhsar.

I feel like it could also be to hype Nidhi into more rounds thus I feel something is off. I could be wrong though.

Yes. Plus it would be a big confidence boost for her new innovation of baked papdi. I don't see how it's an innovation though. I've been baking papdis at home for like 5 years now. And I've seen them so many times in stores. Even air fryer papdis.

Red team won the challenge & safe. Blue team goes for black apron challenge.

Customers vote is 12 for Red team & 15 for Blue team .

3 judges gives their vote for Red team. So Red team won

Doesn’t that make it 15 for both teams?

My opinion is if it’s customers voting, let it be just that. Judges in this case completely voided the customers vote

Customers had one silver coin which counts one vote. Judges had one golden coin each which counts 2 votes.
