Masterchef...The Final Week!

[Manaz]

Yep, I thought she was gone. But my swmbo picked Chris.

He had too much brown & they reckon it didn't taste terrific. Since when was there more points for half a job that tasted OK?

They noted at the start that what they said was going to carry some weight. Julie's book idea and spiel about why winning was important to her probably helped a lot.

I think Chris took a big risk cooking in pressure cookers when he hadn't done so before, and that's what lost it for him.

I'd eat at his restaurant, if I could stomach Melbourne! Being a Melbournian does explain the arrogance and over-inflated opinion he had of himself!

I was shocked to hear about what happened in masterchef last night! Missed the ep due to our photoshoot in melb. Chris is undoubtedly the better chef than Julie. It does seem unfair to him when julies dishes were incomplete. He has been a smug the last couple of weeks though. Anyways...its the Poh train for me! GO POH!! Go you good thing!!

Thats because melbourne produces the best food in the best resturants in the country!!

Melbourne: "Kettle, meet Pot!"


Yeah, missed it last night also due to photoshoot, good thing they show the full ep on the website: http://www.masterchef.com.au/episode-70.htm

Cheers,

Poh has already been booted.
Julie has been one of my top 3 faves on the show so I am backing her to win.

[mscabrio]

Masterchef has been rigged from the very start for Poh to win. Firstly, she was asked to do a second audition when she firstly delievered crap food to the judges and she was given another life line when she was bought back. She is such a sore loser. When she is winning or getting praise from the judges she is all smiles but when things don't go her way (remember her disaster with Andre???) then she comes across as a little storm cloud. It also seems interesting that all of the other contestants are forced to cook food from outside of their prior skills but she continually is able to produce food that she is familiar with (ie: Justine is a french food expert but she didn't get to showcase her skills there, or Kate was a dessert freak but again was expected to be able to produce other meals). I just can't see the big deal with Poh. In the pressure challenges, her meals always look like a train wreck during the cooking process but when they are plated they are fantastic. I wonder if the judges are preparing them for her????

GO JULES!!!!! BTW .... I met George at the Melb good food and wine show and he is HOT HOT HOT ......

Def not a homo. Only watch it to see George ......

Oh what a finale! Although I wanted Poh to win I am really happy for Julie. She has come so far in the competition. Poh really should not have deviated from the recipe in the pressure test. Masterchef is awesome! BRING ON THE NEXT SEASON!

Poh really should not have deviated from the recipe in the pressure test.

That was her undoing for sure. A shame, since she really knew she shouldn't have been doing it (and "winging it" had been her undoing so many times before - she really should have learned)...

I wanted Poh to win
I like her and her smile, she is so sexy lol

It was such a ****e finale.
You could tell it was rigged.

The judges gave Julie heaps of hints and gave none to Poh, especially in the finale.
Julie was told about her pastry sticking, her sorbet being grainy and Poh wasn't even asked why she put the chocolate in the fridge!
In the finale of a competition to win 100K, no one in their right mind would ignore a recipe in front of them that they were told to follow explicitely unless they had been told to lose or paid off.

Also if you have seen the previous episodes, you can see allt he mistakes Julie makes and still manages to get through each week.
It makes for a home style "uyseable" cook-book at the end and a real life person who wins so they get heaps of people entering next year.

Should have been Justine who won imho.

I agree, you could tell Julie was going to win as in the end it basically came down to who has the more marketable cookbook coming out of the competition.
