It is the last regional final of the series as the two chefs representing Northern Ireland go head to head. Judging as ever are Oliver Peyton, Matthew Fort and Andi Oliver, who are joined this week by Shehan Hettiaratchy, lead trauma surgeon at St Mary’s Hospital who helped treat victims of the Grenfell Tower fire.
Both chefs hope to impress with some unusual takes on the brief on the day’s menu. Who will go through to complete the line up for next week’s national final?

It is the final regional heat and the nation’s top professional chefs compete to cook at a banquet celebrating the heroes of the NHS. This week three chefs battle to represent Northern Ireland. Tommy Heaney, last year’s regional winner and head chef at the award-winning Great House Hotel in south Wales, is taken on by two newcomers – Shauna Froydenlund, chef patron at Marcus Waring’s two-Michelin-starred restaurant, and James Devine, the 2017 National Chef of the Year.
