Next Level Finale
In the second half of the finale, the final three chefs must create one dish on each level of the kitchen in just 90 minutes. It is up to the chefs to determine how much time they use on the bottom and middle levels, which will determine how much time they have to make their final dish on the top level. Eighteen chefs began the journey, three will cook in the finale, and only one will win the one-year mentorship, $250,000 and the title of Next Level Chef.
