James Bateman: Block Three

Overview

It’s night 4 of a weeklong culinary contest where 5 strangers battle it out for a $1000 cash prize. After a week of talking a big game it’s feisty food snob James’ shot at the title. And the pressure is on. As a proud owner of a brand new home, James can’t wait to host the inaugural dinner at his new digs. However, he’ll have to wait for his kitchen counter to be installed before he can start to cook! Upon arrival, the guests go off to explore his swanky new abode and James is free to put the finishing touches to his menu; butternut squash and sweet potato soup and roasted bone-in-ham with potato gratin and minted peas. For dessert, James scores points as he offers up espresso and scotch with his chocolate tart. Will James show his guests what great food really is? Or will the stress of the day be just too much for the fervent foodie?
