Rewards Challenge: For this challenge, Chef Ramsay presented the three remaining aspiring chefs with three domes. Under each dome was the name of a country and each had to cook a dish themed after their chosen country. Ariel picked China and chose to do a duck with a lychee plum marinade. Dave got India and went for a mung bean puree and seared pork tenderloin. Kevin chose Mexico and made an orange and cumin light marinated pork tenderloin in a mole and Mexican chocolate sauce, but forgot to bring up the mole and sauce when it came time to serve the dish. The dishes were judged by three renowned chefs-- Vikas Khanna (India), Thomas Ortega (Mexico) and Eddie Wong (China). Although each represented a specific country, all tasted the dishes.

Reward: Dave's dish was chosen as the favorite by all three chefs, though they indicated that they likely would have chosen Kevin's dish, had he only remembered the mole and chocolate sauce. For winning, Dave got to sit at one of the Hell's Kitchen chef's tables and enjoyed being served each of the three judges' signature dishes while also chatting with them. He was also given a set of Demeyere cookware, the same type of cookware used in Hell's Kitchen.

Punishment: For losing, Kevin and Ariel were made to prepare the dining room with Jean-Philippe, polishing glasses among other things. They then had to prep for service, which was being held that evening.
