Gilpin Final
Alex Polizzi takes on the difficult challenge of finding head chefs. It's the final. Alex and the owners select one candidate to become the new executive head chef.
Alex tackles the Gilpin, a fine-dining hotel in the Lake District. This much-loved family-run business is desperate to find a new executive head chef. After months of fruitless searching, the Cunliffe family have failed to find the right person who will care as much about their business as they do. They've now turned to Alex for help and are offering up to a six-figure salary for the right candidate.
It's the final. Over the week, Alex offered up nine candidates to be put through a rigorous interview process. Three were selected to go through to a final interview.
The finalists' challenge is to produce a three-course fine-dining menu for a restaurant full of regular and discerning diners. They will also have to manage a brigade of chefs testing not only their cooking skills but also their ability to run a kitchen. With the promise of up to a six-figure salary on offer, the kitchen is at boiling point.
At the end of the night, Alex and the owners will select one candidate to become their new executive head chef.
