Masterchef Australia In Italy Cooking Rome Style
It was off to Italy for the week on Masterchef Australia, and the first challenge kicked off in Rome. They top ten were broken down into teams of two to be sent off “to explore” Rome to find inspiration to cook a dish reflecting the local cuisine.
Lucky for the teams that each restaurant or shop they went into there was a camera ready english speaking Italian!
Andy and Kylie pulled the short straw and visited the nose to tail restaurant where they were taught to cook Coratella, a dish made of lamb innards including lungs and heart.
Even the gimmick of hearing the air come out the lungs to signal it was cooked did not appeal.
The guest judge was Massimo Bottura and he had never tried this Roman delicacy and none of the judges were fans of it, thinking it was overcooked. To be fair to Andy and Kylie the dish probably only tastes any good if it is straight of the stove not sitting around served cold as these dishes are.
Alice and Wade were inspired by the Squid Ink used in Roman cooking and made Squid Ink Gnocchi with Artichokes. It was looking like a disaster and Wade was getting stroppy with Alice. She was getting peeved that Wade was getting peeved with her when as she said he only did artichokes in an hour and half.
The judges loved their modern twist of the dish and the balance of the dish was perfect. This was good news for Alice as she had a mini-meltdown when she saw who she was cooking for, and in fact looked like the only contestant who recognised Massimo. In fact she compared him to Neitzsche. “Like meeting a philosopher of food,” gushed Alice with tears in her eyes. He was easy on the eye.
Beau and Audra were teamed up. Firstly Beau who has not done much all series managed to score the coveted business class upgrade with Kylie. Also Audra may be pretty shaky this week as she is outside her cuisine comfort zone.
They allegedly found inspiration from people on the street outside the butcher shop they went to. They decided to do Saltimbocca, a salad and a mushroom ragu. However when they got to the markets there were few mushrooms and it still did not sink in that they were out of season. They were criticised for not cooking around the produce that was available.
Their dish was described as confusing, and lucky for them the bottom two were not in an elimination challenge as they would have been there.
The Mindy and Julia got to go the oldest fish shop in Rome. Small in size but they managed to buy some spectacular seafood to make a Roman Seafood Stew. Massimo told them to cook the seafood and sauce separately. George thought the seafood had been prepared perfectly and Massimo the tomato perfectly balanced.
Beau and Aura were making Saltimbocca and mushroom ragu, they could not find nice mushrooms as they were out of season.
Audra was saying she was a little disappointed. The judges said they did not get it, they thought the dish did not make sense.
Deb and Beau were making meatballs with a suprise of fig in the middle. What is it with the guys last night? Ben was disgruntled that it took Debra 75 minutes to make the meatballs, but in that same time frame he only made sauce. At judging Ben decided to passive aggressively throw Deb under a bus. He said Deb was tunnel vision when she had an idea, and he just let her go with that. So if it was disaster he was saying it is her fault. However the judges loved the figs in the middle of the pork meatball and I had been hoping they would make top two.
However they were not, the top two teams were Julia and Mindy, Alice and Wade. There was no bottom two, and these four will be in a restaurant challenge tonight battling it out to get that chance to win an immunity pin perhaps.

I thought the Squid Ink Gnocchi with Artichokes looked awful, and given the problems Alice had with the cooking, was surprised it won ahead of Ben and Debra’s meatballs. I was also puzzled why the contestants weren’t allowed to hang around for the critique of their dishes.
On another side, I suspect that a lot of the people who criticise Alice for being childishly over the top would have be very happy with the effect Wade had on her! Could Wade and Alice be the new Andy and Megan (from MKR)? If Wade had called Alice a knob, then the team dynamics would be just there!
Hehe RR – you have Beau making a few too many dishes there.
It was Deb and Ben with the meat balls. 
Also I think -all- of them got business class tickets?
Gotta say wow – I want to visit now. Some of those places I recognized from playing Assassin’s Creed 2 (yar I’m a nerd). Very pretty place!
Exchange of the night for me was:
George: (something in italian)
Mindy: What does that even mean!?
George: (with australian accent) You’ve got 2 minutes left mate.
Gary’s face upon hearing that – Priceless.
Love Matt asking Ben and Debra how they got along. No-other team was asked that, were they?
Amazed that Alice’s squid ink rocks were considered great, they quite clearly looked like a serious mistake that had been miraculously rescued to me.
Skinny red jeans made another appearance. They should be paying rent by now.
Kylie and Andy giggling over the oddity of lamb’s pluck grated. It’s the internal organs of an animal, not a funny talking birthday card, it’s not exactly something to laugh about. Bit more respect for dead creatures wouldn’t hurt.
If those black ‘cobblestones’ are modern Italian, give me old fashioned every time. Whistling lungs – no thanks!
The scenery was nice, but the actual episode was a bit boring. All of the dishes looked good to me though, even the Coratella.
I think Mindy is going to win another pin tonight. I can’t really see the other three outcooking her, Wade maybe, but definitely not Alice and Julia.
That tattood turd that turns out the tacos won’t have anywhere to hide soon. Where’s the “chivalry” of a couple of weeks ago?
If you were Deb and had seen that idiot’s catalogue of failure, would you let him near the meatballs?
Double groan re Alice’s over the top reaction to the chef and her comparison of him to Nietzsche.
So she likes her philosophy with a dose of syphillis – I just wish Ms Alice and the rest of them would just cook. And not say anything at all.
Ever.
Word, bdd.
She was trying to ensure they were cooked through before saucing them. Kind of important as they were pork meatballs. He just wanted to blunder over and dump the sauce on top, then it’s all she-were-to-blame to the judges.
I was cringing at Alice’s hipster orgasm over Massimo and her reference to Nietzsche.
“A pair of powerful spectacles has sometimes sufficed to cure a person in love”. – Freddy Nietzsche
Methinks Alice may be taking the moustachioed, contrarian, shit-stirrer of philosophy a bit too literally.
Her road-base gnocchi looked sub par to me. But hey, what do I know.
However, none of this was as off putting as the close ups of Mindy’s nails (leopard-skin nail polish…ewwww) digging into prawns and fish.
They looked like they should be clawing into Dr Geoffrey Edelsten’s back rather than being anywhere near food preparation.
Skanky. Just plain skanky…Oh and manky too.
Those leopard-skin talons looked as though they weren’t taking too well to the treatment they’d received, either. Is it just me or did those nail-beds look a bit hot and bothered in their close-up?
What posessed Mindy to get her nails done like that? They were just tacky.
I did cross my mind that Mindy’s tights could use a wash. I thought the next Ma$terchef had to have humility…not ho-mility.
I’m kind of going off Deb again now, I know she had it in mind what she wanted to do but it was a team challenge so she could have tried harder t0 work with Ben. However, he was very quick to complain about her to the camera and then again to the judges so maybe he needs to try harder too? Their’s was the only dish I would have eaten, the squid ink thing reminded me of lumps of coal, and Kylie and Andy holding up the organs of some poor unfortunate animal just made me sick, I couldn’t look, it was disgusting. Give me ravioli or pizza anytime than that probably overpriced muck! Alice, stop going hysterical every time you meet a chef please! Agree, Mindy’s nails looked awful! Tonight might be better, looks like its all about pasta.
Deb is a control freak. I wonder how anyone can work with her. LOL when Ben said he can’t touch the plates when they were plating up.
Did I hear George say that one of them will be going home with an immunity pin when they were in Rome?
With all the wonderful things available in the world to eat, I just can’t see the point of squid ink!
And was Mindy the spare bloke last night?
Gary(excited) : ” Ma$terchef is taking you all the way to ROME!!!! To cook some OFFAL!!”
“Then you’re ALL going to get GA$TRO!!”
Audra should of been paired up with Deb, would of made for more laughs and funny viewing.
I’m trying to match make Beau with a female contestant, but unfortunately they will no doubt wear the pants.
This episode was just bad TV…
Jowlsy looked like he’d wandered in from the French Riviera last night – dressed in white with a fake tan. I think the haircut probably let him down but that may have been Andrew’s revenge.
My thoughts exactly Simone, I thought Mindy’s nails looked rather badly infected!
RR – I think they all travelled business class – at least I think that’s what they were told last week ….
And is someone on this blog masquerading under a different name on the SMH recap !! As there Matt is also called Jowlsy!
Thanks for the read RR and great comments guys, missed show last night – I think this blog is actually better than the show itself!
Yawn episode. The only highlight was “George likes oddball(s).”
Great recap RR and Happy Birthday for last week
Boner, if you could not see that sludgy ink pellets sealed in a frypan lemon emulsion (?) was obviously haute cuisine of the most modern Roman type to be found, you are not worthy to participate in cookery. Get thee to a culinary nunnery at once.
I guess they tasted good. But when even the cooks are visibly surprised that people will agree to eat something, one must ask these questions.
Simone, can I go to a culinary monastery instead? Somewhere in Tuscany or Belgium? I hear these monastic types brew pretty good beer or a guns at distilling. Nuns, on the other hand, still scare the shit out of me.
Had a laugh too when someone was tearing the ‘beautiful’ black squid ink bread apart at the bakery, it responded like a piece of car tyre.
Kylie and Andy’s faces when the philosopher of food (and money) said he’d never gone a Coratella( Cor! WTF is that?) before was almost a highlight.
Gary made a lame joke about kilograms and his own weight issue. Gary says this is the “pointy” end of the competition. Is there any point watching it but for the nightly train wrecks and celebrations of culinary mediocrity that $hine excel at bringing into Au$tralian loungerooms?
Littlepetal – I heard that too. Guaranteed immunity pin this week. Probably 2 contestants cook off with each other like they did in S2?
Does anyone think they really just stumbled into those restaurants and producers and said, “oooh we’re ona reality TV show, can you give us some cooking ideas and a back story”? It must all have been set up before hand. I think Ben’s complaint was the Deb took complete control and then made the meatballs at a menopausal pace. Why you’d worry about them having time to rest before serving I don’t know. The dishes are always stone cold by the time the judges taste them as far as we know. Hilarious that even Massimo Bottura didn’t want to put those nasty innards in his mouth. Wade is the dark horse to watch I think.
Oh, no. Guaranteed immunity pin = Mickey Mouse Ammunity Pin.
Please God/$hine , give it to Deb.
I miss Andrew – would liked to have seen him cooking in Italy. Also wish Philippo was there to make black bread. Would not have eaten that fish dish after seeing those nails digging around in it.
“Please God/$hine , give it to Deb”….
…Yeah. And give her an ammunity pin too.
“EYE am watching you.” – Massimo to Alice. MC has turned into a comedy but no way near as funny as the ‘Meet The Fockers’ moment when Robert de Niro’s character said the same line to Greg Focker.
Alice Through The Looking Glasses.
Thanks for the recap. Yeah it just came out as kinda boring. Audra seems unable to function well in a team size larger than one.
EH (#28) – Mindy, Julia, Alice and Wade all compete against each other in a pizza and pasta challenge at some restaurant, with the other six contestants being waiters.
“…with the other six contestants being waiters.”
Sounds like a comedy sketch.
Does Matt P make an appearance as Mr Creosote?
With those infected fingernails , Mindy should be able to make pusta. Not so beautiful.
@Morgan- Yes, the 4 compete against each other to pick one for the immunity challenge (what I read on the TV guide).
Good grief. Could it be any more obvious that the producers and judges are killing themselves to give the prize to Mindy? Exit Amina, next Audra and KYlie… Anyone who is competition for very average Mindy who wears Amina’s immunity pin. The rest of the amatuer cooks have no hope because they are useless so manufacturing the result to keep a few men and some non chances is a joke. Midget George will not sleep at night unless it goes to Mindy….who at 1.1 metre hin height makes GEorge feel tall…..
Morgan – That’s tonight. 4 to compete for the chance to cook off for an immunity pin. Immunity pin challenge is tomorrow (Tuesday) at Tuscany.
Littlepetal – my guess is they will pick 2 instead of 1 to cook off with each other tomorrow. The synopsis said the guest judge is Antonio Carluccio but didn’t say the contestants is going to cook off with any chef.
It gets worse! Midget George describes the black nobs and green stuff to choke on as ‘modern’ . No-one in their right mind or with eyeballs would choose that crap in a restaurant let alone eat it.! Must be Atom Ants time to shine. Mind you if you were stranded on a deserted island with alice you could use her glasses to magnify the sun enough to heat up a banqet.
Found a slideshow of Alice. Some unseen pictures & she looks normal & smoking hot (the one she is in bondage dress) without her glasses:
http://mangoesworld.com/2012/05/19/love-alice-aliceinsaucepan/
It just seemed to me that whichever couple was sent to the fish shop stood a huge chance of winning – the judges love their seafood and choosing the black rocks for the other winning dish was pretentious.
laughed when jowsly said to gorge would you like to have 3 big balls or just 2 big balls, refering to debs meat/fig balls . so set up last night for hi5 alice to win ,deb and her assistant ben were really the true winners but we all know how the game is played . again did anyone notice the earpieces in all judges ears last night unbelievable can’t these so called masterchefs think for themselves . i am finding all the contestants to be duds this series i really do not care who goes or who wins ,does anyone else feels this way .
Alice has a fan page???
#eh well that was a eye opener , how hot did alice looked dressed up .her friends must be complete bastards and jealous b…hes they must tell her ” nah don’t wear that hot dress, wear your bananas in pyjamas outfit you look hot in that !!! ” please someone go round to her house and destroy every nerd piece of clothing and melt down all her buggles glasses .WE NEED A SAVE ALICE FROM THE CLUTCHES OF T.V CHARACTERS !!!!! CAMPAIGN
I’m with kingfisher. I don’t care who wins or goes. All the characters have gone. The ten who are left are pretty boring, so just for the fun of seeing the forums explode I’d like to see Deb win.
Was Alice having a post-modern, hipster, ironic Isaac Hayes/South Park giggle moment with her savoury ‘black balls’ last night?
“Cartman: Yeah, I love your salty chocolate balls Chef!” –
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YDKVsH7Nnc8&feature=related
hey dunbi what about the returning 3 eliminate contestants that seem to reappear towards the last weeks who do think will comeback …..
@kingfisher; yes noticed MattP’s earpiece and I guess this is how G or G asked Ben if he was having problems with Deb, as no other duo got asked that question – so obviously someone is feeding them questions to ask.
Outside of the some odd dishes presented, I did enjoy the opening scenes and beautiful Italia, side streets and alleys and quaintness……….. ah bellissimo
Oh well done Benny – just diss your cooking partner to the judges – how gentlemanly to kick someone when they’re already somewhat down. In fact, Deb’s (yes Deb’s, not yours) porkballs looked great and should’ve beaten Alice’s offering … which looked like animal droppings she scooped up from a Via Condotti gutter.
Perhaps Nietzsche was thinking of Alice when he said ‘woman was God’s second mistake.’
As for Andy and the cocky, ever-so-enthusiastic Kylie, did they stumble onto the set of Man Vs Wild? What a joke.
Thanks EH, don’t know where you find these pictures of Alice, but she looks good, so different from how we see her usually. Maybe she is advertising a particular brand of glasses? ( don’t know who would buy them though ). Don’t think anyone will come back Kingfisher, I remember Gary saying they weren’t going to do that this year as he’d never felt comfortable with that and that it wasn’t fair.( What is fair with this show, nothing! )
This challenge was kind of silly. Basically, whoever got sent to the better (scripted) locations had the better chances of winning. Beau and Audra’s little Roman experience was just talking to a pretty Italian lady on the street (who wouldn’t surprise me if she turned out to be a local actress since her name was apparently Clare/Clair/Claire, which is not an Italian name. Chiara is the Italian equivalent?)
Funny how the contestants command of Italian was limited to three words: ciao, si, and the poorly pronounced name of their ingredient.
I did look watch the credits at the end to see if this trip had been sponsored by some Italian tourism board, but nothing turned up.
Yeah, this is probably a strange claim to make considering his lack of airtime, but…I don’t like Wade. He seems like the type of guy who reads one little thing about something and then tries to tell you everything about it as if he’s suddenly an expert. He’s been doing that a lot lately, and it’s bothering me.
Debra, the figs are not going to be a “surprise” if you keep telling people that there is a surprise and that it is figs.
I did like Massimo as a guest chef, though. He was friendly, had a good sense of humour. But his opinion seemed to sway the other three a lot, too. Once Massimo said something, Gary especially would just agree with him. I guess it would be difficult to disagree with the best chef in the world, after all.
Agree with Dunbi and Kingfisher – dont care about who wins except the ones Shine wants us to want to win:I think they’re pushing Mindy or Kylie down one’s throat. Although that could change depending on the next few weeks’ editing. Watch for a sympathetic profile and basically no bad/bitchy comments by the contestant to camera leading up to the final.
@Chunks #30 re Deb making “meatballs at a menopausal pace” – Snort and Classic. Wish I had come up with that.
EH, I feel so vindicated. I said ages ago that Alice was gorgeous and that I suspected she wore the glasses so that people would be forced to judge her for her intellect, personality and actions rather than merely her appearance. A lot of women feel unduly pressured to compete daily in the ‘how-sexy-is-she’ competition that is everyday life for all women of reproductive age; I think Alice is choosing to bow out and demand that she is evaluated as a person, not an object.
Also that is a ‘bandage’ dress, not a bondage dress. Important distinction there, I went through cheerfully three times looking for a bondage costume. Disappointed.
Dunbi & kingfisher – I am with both of you. I really don’t care who will win. May as well let Deb wins & I can sit back, munch on popcorn and watch the drama
Simone – Ooppsssss!!! I meant Bandage LOL!! Hide my head in shame!!
Yep. I too went in hunt of the bondage dress pic, only to be disappointed.
Earlier in the series they showed a shot of a conventionally groomed Alice (minus glasses) and she looked better than pretty. Maybe you can’t get laid nowadays unless you look like a hipster nerd? I don’t mind her. But that’s only when she isn’t comparing chefs to either rock stars or historically significant thinkers. She needs to get a grip.
@ Joseph Skyrim bahaha I saw The Pantheon and first thought I had too was Assassin’s Creed. I was hoping Ezio would swoop in and take Deb and Alice out (ya we’re nerds).
Speaking of Alice, just when you thought she couldn’t get any more wankier. What a twat. Oh look at me! I know about Neptune, philosophical chefs and Nietzsche. I’m ever so smart *cue special needs jumping clap*
Please please please…. if Alice can’t stop herself saying try hard commentary about or directly to the big wig chefs – don’t include it in the show! This is one of the many reasons she makes me want to punch myself in the face.
I think Audra and Beau took the ‘easy’ option and asked a passer-by what she cooked. Rather than enter a shop that had been pre-scouted/organised by the show’s producers. They were the only pair not to meet a shopkeeper and taste their wares, which would mean picking up some cooking tips.
What’s the deal with Audra and all the ‘duuude’ business? Does she not know that Beau is known on MC as Bozo. One more weirdly accented duude and I would have had to switch off.
Kingfisher – do you mean some contestants are coming back?
Andrea – I think the ‘passer-by’ was a set-up.
EH – I also went backwards and forwards looking for the bondage outfit – lol
Note to self – no more reading 50 shades of grey while typing comments on RR’s blog.
I’m going fifty shades of grey in variety of places.
Must phone Ajay on Dial-a-Celeb to get her reaction.
Rome~The city where one of the world’s greatest empires fell~Ma$terchef.
Ben~ Fifty shades of beige.
Miss Alice did use her ‘beauty’ to secure a finalist spot for the face of Caulfield racing:
http://www.newsphotos.com.au/SearchResults.asp?PageAction=SimpleSearch&QueryText=Alice+zaslavsky
Andy Pandy – No secret here. I used Google image on Alice Zaslavsky
So what, does she save her greasy wanky persona for a cooking show?
I LOVE Roma and I was delighted when I found out that the MC contestants were going there this year, but last night’s episode was just so “meh”…
I thought Audra and Beau’s dish was just so boring, and I’m actually disappointed that there wasn’t a bottom 2, as Audra really deserved to be in it last night.
I was shocked that the judges thought that sludgy black gnocchi was tasty, as it looked horrible when Alice was preparing it. Alice seemed to think Wade had been sitting on his hands for 90 minutes preparing the artichokes, but it really doesn’t take 90 minutes to make gnocchi either!
I felt very sorry for Ben being paired with Deb – sure, he’s a one trick pony, but Deb showed us, once again, that she is an absolute nightmare in team challenges. I actually thought that Ben was quite restrained in his comments to the judges about what it was like to work with Deb (especially remembering Deb’s harsh comments about Audra last week). It was just lucky for both of them that the meatballs turned out.
I’m actually rooting for Wade to get the immunity pin this week, since it seems someone is guaranteed to get one. It’s time that one of the boys got one. If Mindy gets another one, I won’t be able to watch…
Are you listening $hine? Since Deb has been such a hit, it must be time for:
$enior Ma$terchef(tm)
Mindy is a super special to win because the judges and producers have already decided that she will. Only Kylie and Audra have any ability out of the rag-tag bunch that are left and the judges will make sure they get rid of those two so that it is only out of Mindy and someone completely hopeless…..like any one of the men for instance. What an ordinary bunch of cooks they managed to find this year! Midget George who bounces up and down on his feet when he speaks so that he looks taller than his actual height of 1 metre ( if he didnt shave his head, he would be 1cm taller) is madly in love with Mindy as she is his height……
Bolders, it would seem so! you would never think it was the same Alice would you?
bdd #71… just think how many erectile dysfunction ads will they be able air in this case.
They’ll be able to re-name George and Gary, Sniff and Stiff.
Culinary Boner-You mean ReadyAnytime ad. I was laughing when I saw the ad on SBS Cycling Central and on their broadcast of the Tour De France.
http://www.readyanytime.com.au/
EH- Love those Alice photos. Wonder why she behaves in such a way on MC.
To get noticed & get us talking? I start to wonder if she is recruited by MC casting agent to act as a ‘cooking clown’ for the show.
Cookie Monster – It’s still better than last year’s lot, where I could count the number of good cooks on a single hand.
Yes same as this year and in the end they are just reasonable cooks at best so why is the show called Masterchef?
That’s right Boner #74 . Those , funeral insurance and steam mop ads.
Oh, the Tour de France, the famous bike race that’s on in between the Ready Anytime ads. What a scream those ads are.
SBS must think every sterile guy in Australia is watching the TDF.
I hope they go via Hong Kong on the way home so that Atom Ant Alice can buy some glasses that dont make her look completely gormless. She looks like a Manga character.
Help. Help. Intervention required!
I just had a day dream about Debra – yes, I’m still at work day dreaming – and am now starting to think of her as *nudge, nudge, wink, wink* a ‘challenge’ I’d like to wrestle with.
Problem is, I reckon I’d have a better chance with Tabatha Coffee.
Is the proper way to accept a compliment to put your hands together like in prayer, then bow your head? I noticed Alice doing that last night, and remember seeing it a lot on the Voice too. I’ll have to try that next time.
Also, can you imagine sitting in business class with those clowns, how loud would it get if Audra and Alice found something to cheer about. The shots of Rome were beautiful (and it made me really wanna go there) – Nikon really got their moneys worth, as I thought it was more about the photos and their conveniently placed cameras than the food in the first half hour. Next year one of those companies that does talking electronic translators should try to get a gig.
CB – slap your face and then jamb your thumb in a drawer. Okay, you’ve got your own attention. Now take 10 deep breaths and think about it like this – wholesome or down and dirty? You have got a choice.
EH -
http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/alice_in_chains/artist.jhtml
I have found a photo of Alice in chains… I am still hanging out for Alice in bondage… please do not disappoint us again
How to open the discussion
Here are some suggested conversation starters:
•Dr, I am experiencing erection problems
•Dr, I don’t think my sex life is as it used to be
•Dr, can you help, I think I might need a treatment to improve my sex life, as Masterchef is crap
•Dr, I am experiencing some difficulty getting an erection
Thanks Georgie. Think it was all them hi-definition shots of unwholesome leopard print nails last night wot done it to me.
I’m relieved it was the fingernails CB, for a minute there I thought it might have been Debra serving up a pair of balls.
CB-You need to see Dr T. He can fix you up. What happened to Ajay? Replaced by Deb? You really need help.
Seriously, the lot over at The Amazing Race have better cooking talent than these 10 best amatar cooks! They made souffles in Paris & none of them failed. lol!
Please help me too, Dr T. Mindy is making me sick.
Talking about glasses. I just bought 3 pairs of sunglasses !!! Must be out of my mind and I got a pair in red colour. Must be influenced by Alice. I need help too. Calm down everyone. I bought some trendy cycling sunglasses. Hubby said since he can’t afford to buy me a racing bike, he can start with sunglasses. Next will be the helmet (I am using helmet from K Mart !!!!)
Dr T- Where are you located? Many of us here need help.
BDD – Don’t get me started on Mindy. The day she gets eliminated, I will photoshop an Alice in a bondage dress.
Dr T – I am afraid this is the best I can do at the moment: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-HfhZ800GS30/TjrskdmCNHI/AAAAAAAABXA/woBMsj87mJs/s640/mickey+mouse.jpg
EH #94 LOL
Fides #83 I noticed that too. Reminded me of Kylie Kwong in the Dalai Lama Challenge. They behaved like they are servants to the people they served.
Dr T, last night and again tonight just after 7.00 I began feeling very depressed and bored. Then there was a big fireball on my TV screen and feelings of being abused began to overwhelm me. This lasted for just over an hour. Is this normal?
Julia’s pasta didn’t turn out because Mindy hogged all the cookers.
She ran around helping everyone while they all shafted her.
Agree with lulu. Julia was robbed tonight. Are we allowed to talk yet?
I need help too Dr T because I keep having visions of a giant guanciale with a gaping sucking mouth. Tonight a long curling tongue slithered out of the gaping mouth and flicked itself expertly under the pointy end of a sagging piece of pizza and two seconds later it was gone – the piece of pizza I mean. The guanciale’s mouth didn’t even chew! Just one flick of the tongue, gulp and gone. It’s giving me nightmares Dr T.
SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!! don’t look if you do not want to know who gets immunity pin ………….. alice the old pin mark in the uniform between the top buttons again when will bloody ma$terchef learn . you can see the pinhole in tomorrow’s grab highlight . oh by the way stupid stupid show tonight yeah yeah yeah yeah
I love how the guanciale* pretended the pizza was on his tongue long enough for him to recognise the four flavours of cheese . That slice of pizza disappeared quicker than an Italian rat down a sewer pipe.
* Pig’s jowl.
bdd he nearly ate his own hand he’s that hungry
Wade is totally hopelessly tonight. He worked at a snail pace. You wouldn’t want to go his house for a meal because you will be so pissed by the time the food is served. Pinching other people sauce. Can’t understand how George said he was very helpful in the kitchen. He himself need help.
Alice – When she can’t take her own sweet time to get the pissa out. Of course the pissa was better cooked.
Not surprise with the result tomorrow. Alice said she was doomed. Since Sunday Alice is getting lots of airtime.
Not much was shown on how Mindy’s dishes turned out. Only got a peep when the judges were tasting. I guessed they don’t want us to form a judgement on her dishes.
George has developed Matt Moran’s infuriating habit of adding a ‘yeah?’ to the end of every sentence…. FFS
Lol bdd – cheese indeed.
The guanciale was dressed for the Mardi Gras tonight – must have had a date after the show.
Littlepetal – Who is slower? Wade picking basil leaves one by one or Dr Evil (MKR) cutting green beans one by one lol
Jowl$y would go to Pamplona to party but the bulls run away from him.
Wade picking Basil ~at menopausal pace. Or Dr Evil on beans. What a pulsating contest.
EH – Wade and Dr Evil can have a cock off !!!
Wade sucked big time tonight. Agree lulu, Julia was had. The fact that she prefers not to rely on others means she was organized and then they used her.
Pamplona can start a new sport – the running of the guanciale.
Agree that Julia was shafted for Mindy. Has anyone else noticed that when Mindy is given camera time she dominates like she is an infomercial presenter. Wonder if Andrew Rocheford (sic) was reshuffled from 10′s breakfast show to make way for her (if it the show isn’t axed in the interim.)
Alice-too bad she is teacher otherwise I am sure the lad mags would have saved EH the trouble of photoshopping and refined Alice’s librarian fantasy she has going with her oversized glasses.
In a face off between Dr Evil and Bert(minus Ernie) at least Dr Evil serves ‘real’ champagne.
These comments are hilarious thanks guys.
It is unlikely there will be a return of contestants they dumped it last year
EH – After your post with Alice picks I too was cycling around asking where’s the bondage dress!?
