Part 30

Michael Caines and Mark Hix cook their entire menus for the panel of judges, who will then name the chef to represent the South West in the national final.

Fourteen of the nation's top chefs compete to convince the French that we can match them in gastronomic prowess. Two top chefs from each region will be competing head to head to win the chance to cook at a fantastic four-course banquet hosted by the British Ambassador to France.

Time to find out who is going to be representing the South West of England in the Great British Menu National Final. In each edition so far, the chefs have cooked a different course from their original four-course menu - now our kitchen rivals Mark Hix and Michael Caines cook their entire menus.
The exacting panel of food experts - Prue Leith, Matthew Fort and Oliver Peyton - have the task of deciding which chef will be triumphant and go on to the grand final. It鈥檚 been a friendly session so far in the kitchen but true competitive colours could start to show today. Will it be Michael鈥檚 sophistication or Mark鈥檚 simplicity that wins over the judges?
