The Julia Child Challenge

S01E02 For the Love of Food

Head judge Antonia Lofaso invites the contestants to celebrate Julia Child's deep affection for her husband, Paul, by adding their personal twist to one of his beloved meals, coq au vin. Following this, they are tasked with preparing a dish that reflects a significant love in their own lives. Antonia, along with guest judges Molly Baz and Susan Feniger, evaluates the competitors' creations and ultimately determines which contestant's offerings do not meet the mark, resulting in their elimination from the competition.
