We were in a restaurant in France and I ordered the crab mayonnaise. They dished up a whole crab, a dish of mayo and a selection of tools. We spent a happy half hour showering our fellow diners in bits of shell.

That’s funny 😂😂😂😂

I'm a bit confused already, 15 minutes in.

Wait they get to CHANGE it?!

Yes, they all seem to be tweaking it. Surely that isn’t right….?

Mum and nan

If I was a contestant, I'd have preferred the old way.
This is scary!

AutumnMuse · 03/11/2026 20:18

They put their own creative twist to the bisque.

PotterHead1985 · 03/11/2026 20:12

Same

Great minds 😂

it pivotel to me - always refer back to the skills test - I don’t like this extra time either

I want to be able to see their individual Knife skills etc

I knew where I was with the old way

Sunbird24 · 03/11/2026 20:18

Skills & invention tests mashed up…

littlbrowndog · 03/11/2026 20:19

It’s good. Am really enjoying it

What’s confusing?

tbh I’ve been typing more than watching 😂

ilovesooty · 03/11/2026 20:19

Matty looks much older than 24

AutumnMuse · 03/11/2026 20:19

Love to have a pasta machine

You can hide more here though - their eyes aren’t bearing down on you - well two sets of eyes just a few foot away the whole time

littlbrowndog · 03/11/2026 20:20

Marcus is walking about. In a scary way

Lucky you. I'm so on edge for some reason I just ate a bar of Galaxy and didn't savour one bit

I had a slightly fancy dinner over here last week - starter was reinvented ploughmans: cheese tart with granny smith apple pearls, pickled onion icecream, parmesan crunch and tomato
Dessert was lavender panna cotta with blueberry compote, almond crumble and dehydrated blueberries

bungobungobungo · 03/11/2026 20:23

@Prideofpoona mind you Galaxy doesn’t taste the same any more 😔.

Tinydanceer · 03/11/2026 20:23

feel quite robbed - I love the usual skills test and often rewatch it
