Legendary double Michelin-starred chef Michel Roux Jnr and vegetable expert and Masterchef veteran Gregg Wallace are joined by Michel's trusted sous chef Monica Galetti as they hunt for a young chef who can make it to the top of the culinary world.

The three chefs who earned the right to cook for the legendary Michel face one final test: to recreate two classic dishes of salade Lyonnaise and Paris-Brest. Only one of them will make it through to the quarter-final.

Then, four new chefs face a nail-biting elimination round. In front of Monica and Gregg, they have to earn the right to cook for Michel by demonstrating their culinary expertise with a skills test of making a fine mirepoix of vegetables and a palate test of making creme anglaise.

The remaining three chefs then face two more gruelling tests for an expectant Michel and Gregg. First, they must make two dishes in 50 minutes from the central ingredient of scallops, then they must recreate two classic dishes of kidneys a la diable and tartelette aux fruits.
