It’s finals week on MasterChef: The Professionals, and just three incredible chefs remain. Embarking on the trip of a lifetime to Copenhagen, Denmark, they will enter a world of gastronomy that goes beyond anything they have encountered before.\n\nTheir journey will take them to the two Michelin-starred Alchemist. Recently voted the fifth best restaurant in the world, it is run by head chef and mastermind, Rasmus Munk. Entering an old shipyard, the finalists will step into an immersive world where science, art and food collide in breathtaking fashion.\n\nFirst, the finalists will attend a short masterclass to understand the ethos behind Rasmus’ unique holistic food, where dishes are called ‘impressions’ for the very reason that they each tell a story designed to elicit an emotion from the diner. Some comforting, some confronting, this is an experience for the bold and the brave. Once inspired, it’s down to the three finalists to create their own ‘impression’ for Rasmus to taste and critique. Ingredients that would normally go to waste are a mainstay here, including pig’s windpipes, cod jaw and cow’s udders. So the finalists will have to use their chef’s intuition to deliver something truly spectacular.\n\nThat’s just for starters, as the lucky three will then have the once in a lifetime opportunity to join Rasmus’ 25 strong brigade of chefs to deliver a full restaurant service. They will each be responsible for two ‘impressions’ from an epic tasting menu that stretches to 50 courses. They will have just hours to deliver food that can take years to master. Expect dumplings made out of candyfloss and screen-printing techniques used to create sweet treats. This is creativity on entirely different scale. \n\nToday’s diners include Marcus, Monica and Gregg, who will expect their finalists to wow on every front and deliver dishes that hit Rasmus’ two Michelin star standard. The grand final is almost here, so every mouthful matters in the race to take the title.
