After 14 weeks on Top Chef, we finally crowned a winner of the season. Sherry, Rhoda, and Laurence were the last three standing and only had one more challenge ahead of them. Which one of them would earn the titular recognition?
The final trio met with Tom and Kristin on top of Grandfather Mountain, The judges tasked them with creating the best four-course progressive meal of their lives. Each course would be a toast to someone or something that has impacted each of their lives. For the meal, the competitors received $2,000 and four hours to shop at a variety of local Charlotte businesses. Afterwards, they had five hours to prep and cook with an additional two hours the next day prior to service.
With such an important challenge ahead of them, the competitors would receive some extra help. First off, they drew knives with the names of three former Top Chef contestants including season four winner Stephanie Izard, season 15 winner Joe Flamm, and two-time finalist Sara Bradley. The alums met with the finalists to help guide them as they developed their menus. Then, like previous seasons, they could choose a sous chef. The selection came from the last three eliminated chefs.
Here are our Power Rankings after week 14.
