Hungry for It

It's halfway through the contest and with only six cooks remaining, it's getting hot in the kitchen.

In the Level Up, the cooks must transform basic tinned food into a bougie brunch that blows the mentors' socks off.

This week's Service Challenge is pasta, but with a twist. There's only one rule – no traditional Italian dishes allowed! Guest judge Nathan Smith has had huge viral hits with some of his mash-up ideas, and the cook who most impresses in the restaurant kitchen will win a live cook-along with Nathan in front of all his followers.

For this week's nail-biting Knives Out challenge, the bottom two cooks must make churros with salted caramel sauce. And when one cook is sent home, just five cooks remain.
