Northern Ireland - Judging

Today, the two highest-scoring chefs from Northern Ireland go head to head and cook their six-course menus again. But will they take on board their veteran’s advice as they serve the panel of judges and a TV presenter turned children’s author?

The chefs need to impress the formidable judges - food writer Matthew Fort, restaurateur Oliver Peyton and broadcaster and cook Andi Oliver - as well as a guest judge - one of the successful children’s authors the banquet will celebrate. Today, they are joined by former classroom assistant, children’s TV presenter and author Cerrie Burnell, who writes children’s book with an emphasis on diversity and inclusivity - subjects she is passionate about.
