Worst to First: The Final Battle

In the final battle, the two remaining recruits must execute their own three-course menu for a panel of culinary titans at David Burke Kitchen, a restaurant in New York City. Bobby and Anne work with their respective recruits to design the menus, taking into account their personal culinary journeys. The contestants learn new techniques, shop for groceries, practice their menus and execute all three courses in a dramatic end to an exhausting competition. Finally the panel of culinary experts -- including David Burke, Marcus Samuelsson and Susan Feniger -- determine which chef has moved from worst to first and will walk away with the $25,000 grand prize.
