我怎么看Poh就觉得不舒服呢。她长相也太凶了吧。而且看人的眼神真是吓人。以貌取人是不对的，可是我实在盼着她早点回家。

恩，你们的命相不合。。就如我看justine 不顺眼一样。。。。我就觉得poh 很可爱。。。

我也是喜欢POH,不喜欢JUSTINE,可能她亲和力不够吧

我也喜欢POH,不觉得她凶,我觉得她很会做甜点,每次PRESSURE TEST做出来的甜点都很赞

感觉好像很多人都不是很喜欢Sam，萝卜白菜各有所爱，我们家就很喜欢Sam那种小孩式傻傻的笑容（知道他绝对不是MasterChef的料，呵呵）

之前一直追着看，但是自从找回Poh,Tom,Justin 之后，觉得变味了，失去了绝对公平
个人不喜欢Poh，总是把责任推给别人，不勇于担当，而且总觉得镜头里面都是她，不知道什么原因
不知道这里有没有潜规则的说法，娃哈哈

wakaka,,,Jason in Home Made has won!!! yay^^

说实在的, 这些这么主观评判的东西, 哪有什么绝对公平啊. 要绝对公平的话, 很早之前有一次ELIMINATION, SAM, CHRIS , 还有一个是TOM 还是TREVORS, 三个, 最后JUDGES 都没有ELIMINATE 任何一个人, 那集就没有绝对公平了啊. 而且这个是COOKING TEST, SAM 相比之下没有什么COOKING SKILL, 但更多的是LUCK. I think that's why most of the people want him to go.

也没有觉得POH 经常出现在镜头里面, 尤其是GROUP 一起的时候, 她和 GENI 都属于比较安静的人了, 我还嫌她们出场不够的说.

今天的报纸CHRIS 上头条了 (在报纸的第3页). 有一个名叫SUSIE 的人在博客上揭露CHRIS 接受过厨师训练. 要知道MASTERCHEF 比赛之前所有参赛者必须签合同表明自己并没有接受过任何正式培训. 博客上说,CHRIS 家有个商用厨房, 有900 本食谱. CHRIS 承认自己结交了很多有名厨子, 有朋友"帮助"他.

HE is the cook that turned a pig's head into a mouth-watering delicacy.

But now the knives are out for MasterChef Australia contestant Chris Badenoch.

The hot favourite to take out the Channel 10 amateur cooking contest is fighting off claims that he is more adept in the kitchen than he claims.

Badenoch is battling a viewer backlash, with online bloggers questioning if he knows his way around a kitchen more than he is letting on.

With a commercial kitchen installed in his home and more than 900 cookbooks at the ready, it is an easy assumption to make.

"He's got to have had lessons, he's too good but doesn't that go against all the rules?" a blogger identified as Susie wrote on one forum.

"Chris works as a beer merchant, but keeps referring to a 'friend' that helps him. Could the 'friend' be professional lessons?" another blogger wrote anonymously.

Before appearing on the show, all finalists signed an agreement clearly stating that contestants must not have been paid as a food professional, finished an apprenticeship, been paid to work in a commercial kitchen or embarked on a lengthy course.

While Badenoch admits he has many chef friends and contacts in the cooking industry, he claims the extent of his lessons comprise a Matt Moran "chef's day out" group session nearly a decade ago and a Simon Johnson demonstration six years ago.

"It's absolutely not true, I've never worked in a professional kitchen," Badenoch, 41, said yesterday.

"Before the show I was self-taught, that's why I have so many books. Lots of my books aren't just recipes with pretty pictures, they are all about technique and honing your skills."

Instead of spending his hard-earned cash on fast cars, the former advertising executive has poured "tens of thousands" of dollars into his cooking fetish.

It began with his "pride and joy", the commercial kitchen he bought for just $1200 at an auction 10 years ago, and has expanded to include spending $800 on a first edition print of famous French cookbook Larousse Gastronomique, $1200 on a mandolin vegetable slicer and forking out $1500 on flights to visit France a handful of times to buy copper pots that cost him $450 each.

"I am totally obsessed with food and cooking, I pretty much live my life in my kitchen," said the Melbourne resident, who exposed his kitchen handiwork to 2 million viewers nationally last Sunday.

"I've had the (commercial) kitchen for 10 years and it has been in about three or four different houses - I just pick it up and move it with me.

"The kitchen is my favourite room in the house," he said.

For the aspiring chef, whose bizarre baked pig's head thrilled the judges but put some viewers off, MasterChef Australia has improved his cooking skills and promoted his beer appreciation business BeerMasons. Since he first appeared on the program membership for the society has increased.

"It's worked out unbelievably," he said. "I've developed my profile and got my business recognised."

Chris made quite nasty comments to others...on top of that, his dish sucks!

上次在HK在菜里放了一片来历不明的荷叶，这次更绝，连锡纸都直接上碟了。。。。(paopaobing(89))

Hopefully it is his time to go..

Andre and Chris on sudden death elimination tomorrow...

Who can get the last place in the final?

Personally I hope it will be Andre, but I guess Chris could be the one winning.

cicillx

诶,说实话,看到现在都腻了,也该结束了.
最后一周还剩下6个人,不管是CHRIS还是ANDRE被淘汰,他们都是POH他们被招回来之前留下的,搞来搞去上次留下的人走了,后来又给机会的人留下,说实话,我个人觉得不是太公平.
最后剩六个人,选一个MASTERCHEF,竞争很激烈,不过这么多人,选一个很难呀

Andre's left.....

这周lunch break和同事聊起master chef，发现这还真的挺热门的，我几乎所有的同事都看。
还有一个女的跟我说她全家都超爱，而且最爱的是她爸！
有讨厌Andre的，有讨厌Sam的，还有超级讨厌poh的，所以午饭时间好不热闹啊！

WITH her vibrant smile and exceptional culinary skills Justine Schofield has won over the hearts of the nation to become the favourite on MasterChef Australia.

However, behind the reality TV star's smile is a painful past, with the 23-year-old revealing she experienced the most horrific year of her life before turning over a new leaf in 2009.

Dealt personal blow after blow, Schofield weathered the strain of a painful break-up and the tragic death of her grandmother while attempting to make the most of a job she hated.

"I just had a really sh*t year and everything was going wrong for me," says the aspiring chef from Hurlstone Park in Sydney's west.

Winner: MasterChef's ratings record

"I didn't know where my life was going and it was just a really tough time.

"Everything in my life was bad I had a really horrible year. I was in-between jobs then I fell into sales and didn't feel like I had the touch to do it.

"At the same time as trying to work that out I had a break-up and then my grandma died.

Stir-fry downs Justine

"I was thinking, 'Could this year get any worse?' It was a really tough year. I remember my friend saying on New Years Eve things would get better in my life this year but I didn't believe her."

To mend her broken heart Schofield embarked on a trip to Croatia.

"I needed to escape and just get out of town," the down-to-earth contestant says.

"So we ran off to Croatia."

Now, Schofield thanks MasterChef Australia for her new lease on life.

In the same week she successfully auditioned for the Channel 10 program she was made redundant from her sales executive job.

"My life couldn't be much better than it is now, it's amazing how right my friend was," she says.

"This year has been crazy and finally my life has fallen into place.

"When I started on this show it was a bit of fun because my girlfriend said I should go for it and now I know this is what I want to do with my life. It's been like an epiphany.

"I really believe in my cooking now, I am not taking it as a joke."

Happily single, Schofield admits she might not have grown up in the safest of areas, but living the multicultural society of Sydney's west has taught up to stand on her own two feet.

"It's a little rough, but that's all I've known," she said.

"Maybe that's why I am good at handling hard situations."

Since launching on April 27 the MasterChef phenomenon has swept through Australia with the TV program recording his highest weeknight episode on Wednesday.

Attracting a national average audience of 1.93 million viewers, it was the fourth most watched MasterChef Australia episode this year.

夢回唐朝

http://news.ninemsn.com.au/enter ... s-is-no-cheat-judge



Masterchef judge Gary Mehigan has lashed out at claims series favourite Chris Badenoch is not the amateur chef he purports to be.

Badenoch was fending off a viewer backlash from bloggers earlier this week after some raised suspicions about his collection of 900 cookbooks and the commercial kitchen he installed in his home.

But Mehigan hit back at the 41-year-old beer merchant's critics saying the claims were all lies.

Who is your favourite contestant? Go to the bottom of the page to tell us who you want to win and why.

"It's not true," the TV judge told ninemsn.

"The rules that we had during auditions have stayed true, and they were if you have undertaken paid work as a chef then you can't enter the competition."

"Chris hasn’t — he's just a keen amateur cook who wants to take it to the next level."

"He probably does more than cookbooks than me though, which is saying something," he joked.

Tensions have been running high in the Masterchef household as the competition heads into its final week and following the injection of three ousted contestants back into the game.

Badenoch was an outspoken critic of the controversial move, claiming it was unfair to the contestants who had made it so far without being eliminated.

But Mehigan played down rumours of clashes in the house, saying all the contestants "genuinely get along".

"They have discovered that they can learn just as much from each other as they can from us [the judges] or other chefs," he said.

"So they all sit up and take notice of the dishes the others are making and taste their food."

"They treat each other with enormous respect and what that does is take the edge off the competition."

Mehigan said his favourite contestants in the competition had remained the same since the top 20 were selected — Badenoch, Justine Schofield, Poh Ling Yeow and Julie Goodwin.

"They are all fantastic cooks and they all have a clear vision about where they want to take their cooking and what sort of restaurants they want to open," he said.

Meanwhile, heated discussions are taking place in Sydney's kitchens as professional chefs argue about who should win.

Sous chef of the Red Lantern restaurant in Surry Hills, Chris Nair, said the popular TV series was "the talk of the town", adding that his favourite contestant was Badenoch.

"He doesn’t mind taking risks, so I would like to see him do well."

Mark Best, of the three-hat Marque Restaurant, said he was backing 23-year-old Sydney advertising executive Justine Schofield.

"I think she is incredibly driven," Mr Best said.

"Out of all them [the contestants] I think she is the one I can really see going on to starting her own restaurant or being a chef."

OUSTED MasterChef contestants Poh Ling Yeow, Justine Schofield and Tom Mosby were back on the show last night,again vying for a chance to become a master chef.

But that's not all that's cooking. Rumours on Adelaide artist Poh's love life are bubbling more than a bouillabaisse, but we can safely say MasterChef contestant Andre Ursini isn't the man in question.

Adelaide Now's Confidential couldn't get Poh on the phone yesterday as all 20 contestants were in production, but our trusted source said she was seeing someone else from the show. However, you won't see him on telly because he's one of the backstage crew.

Remaining contenders - Andre, Chris Badenoch, Julie Goodwin and Sam Ciaravolo - were shocked to see the trio return to Ten's MasterChef, cooking for hungry HMAS Kanimbla sailors.

The judges selected Poh, Justine and Tom as three contestants with the most potential. Julie was thrilled, but reactions from some of the other contestants were mixed. "That's such an exciting moment. I'm over the moon to see them," Julie said.

"I'm wondering what the hell's going on," Chris said. "My reaction is mixed. I'm a little disappointed. It's one step forward and three steps back. I'm not feeling threatened, though. I've beaten them before and I'll beat them again."

Poh was chuffed to get back on the show.

"I was absolutely thrilled to be invited back and am flattered the judges selected me as someone who had more potential but went out too soon," she said. "I left because I took too many risks, so I'll play it safe."

On explaining the judge's decision, George Calombaris said: "We believe they deserve a second chance. They are talented enough to be in this competition and talented enough to possibly be Australia's first Masterchef."

The sailors voted on their favourite dish. Justine came out on top, with Sam and Tom in the bottom two, facing elimination tonight.

THE only sure thing about the final week of MasterChef is that the contestants, both remaining and eliminated, don't want Chris Badenoch to win.

Returned contestant Poh Ling Yeow, who was brought back in after being eliminated, carved him up and, last week, Andre Ursini sliced and diced Badenoch, who is tipped to win the show and its first prize of $100,000 cash and a cookbook deal.

"It's well known that Chris is quite negative, quite cynical, and that was draining to be around," Ursini said.

"He will admit that. But I appreciated his approach - he didn't show any emotion whatsoever. . . There are others that I'd rather win."

Ursini, 28, said there were also tensions among other contestants.

"If you're stuck with 20 people in a house, you're gonna get a bit of fire," he said.

"I mean, Sammy (Ciaravolo) and I didn't get along until Hong Kong.

"And then I really appreciated his approach to the competition, which was light-hearted, give it all you've got, but not take it too seriously like Chris did."

Early last week, Badenoch was savaged on websites, with many viewers questioning his professional experience in the kitchen.

"Chris works as a beer merchant, but keeps referring to a 'friend' that helps him. Could the 'friend' be professional lessons?" one blogger wrote about Badenoch.

Ling Yeow also blamed Badenoch for sabotaging her performance when she was initially punted from the show on June 18.

"Chris took on the role of team captain . . . he also did a few things that was a bit of sabotage and I found it quite unfair," she said.

MasterChef Australia - Channel Ten's breakout hit, which has averaged a nightly audience of more than 1.5 million - enters its final week tonight.

本来还蛮看好chris的，后来就越来越不喜欢他，
可能因为他年纪比较大，所以比较世故，又自我感觉非常良好

自从看到这里有人说他头发很脏很油，每次烧菜都像要滴到菜里之后，
我每次看到他都有看不下去的感觉。。。

昨天晚上的两场比赛其实只是为了找一个优胜者，然后今天晚上开始一天out 一个？我没有理解错吧。。julya 千不该万不该选了山羊肉，胜利白白让给了chris：（

预告中justine 在哭.....估计她不到星期天就出局了。。。大家都很stress 啊，昨天晚上大家都没有发挥好，便宜chris 了。。。

cicillx

我觉得CHRIS在他第一次当TEAM LEADER的时候就应该OUT了,当时他的错也很明显,不过运气好,大家没有选他

zhongzimm

正在放的这集做pie的，chris表现的很小人，
他自己因为有事先知道题目的优势，所以表现的不错，
其他有几个人做的很糟糕，结束的时候在那里掉眼泪，
chris居然幸灾乐祸，说看到人家桌上都乱糟糟的，pie也样子很可怕，
还有好几个人在掉眼泪，所以，would be interesting to see what will turn out... 一副很开心的样子。。。

想做个好厨师，也要先把人做好吧，人品不好，菜做得再好也没啥稀奇，
这样的人要是最终赢了比赛，这个节目就让人失望了。。。

POH的甜品真的是无敌呀,基本每次有甜品的比赛,她基本都能获胜

CHRIS今天看到POH赢,还很不爽地样子,诶,不喜欢

明天的INVENTION TEST,替POH担心,希望她不是最差的
