Last time Danny was sent home from Gail's bridal shower. Quickfire-create a delicious holiday meal in one pot in 45 mins-guest judge Martha Stewart. Bottom 3-Jeff, Eugene & Fabio. Top 3-Hosea, Jamie & Ariane. Ariane wins & gets a signed cookbook from Martha. Elimination challenge-cater a holiday party for 200 guests to benefit AMFAR. Harlem gospel choir sang the 12 days of Christmas. Chefs drew knives to determine which day of Christmas their dish would be based on. They will have 3 hours to prep the night before - one on the day of. They will have 45 mins at Whole Foods & $800 to spend. Natasha Richardson is the host & guest judge along with Michelle Bernstein. The next morning Hosea & Radhika's food was spoiled so everyone pulled together & helped them out. At the party the guests pinned their AIDS ribbons on the table of their favorite dishes. Top 4-Hosea, Jeff, Stefan & Radhika. Hosea won with his smoked loin of pork. Michelle Bernstein had a signed cookbook for Hosea as well as everyone else. Bottom 3-Jamie, Eugene & Melissa. Tom went into the stew room to tell the chefs how disappointed they were with the food in general this week. Also because of the teamwork & the impending holiday - no one would be going home. Next week - Jamie does a scallop dish, AGAIN! & Gail's replacement.

thanks for the review! I also thought Ariane was going to be out first, but she's done amazing. Doesn't it make you wonder what some of the other chefs that got sent home early in previous seasons could have done?? ex. I liked Dale despite his temper... lol.
