My predictions were correct once again, with Ashleigh sent home and Buddha taking a back to back victory. Damarr also bounced back, while we saw Nick on the bottom for the first time. Lots to talk about, let’s rank!
5. Sarah Welch- This was Sarah’s time to really emerge and shock the bunch, but she fell flat. I don’t blame her, considering it’s a massive leap from LCK to the main competition. But nonetheless, she disappointed and fell flat of expectations, thus putting her on the bottom headed into the final 5.
4. Nick Wallace- Nick was on the bottom for the first time this whole season, and unfortunately, because of how many numbers we have left, being on the bottom once can sink you low in these rankings. It’s only because Evelyn, Damarr, and Buddha had great showings that puts Nick here. But judging by how Sarah performed, I think Nick will be okay next week and the top 4 we’ve been predicting for weeks will emerge the top 4 of this season.
3. Damarr Brown- Damarr bounced back this week, finishing in the top 3 and managing to pull on our heartstrings in the process. This top 4 is so solid, it’s really hard to rank any of them at this point, but Damarr could still win this thing and I wouldn’t be surprised.
2. Evelyn Garcia- With Nick taking a bit of a dip, Evelyn rises in the rankings. She won the quickfire and placed top 3 in the elimination challenge. She really hasn’t put up a bad dish since week 4. Good for her for being perhaps the most consistent chef remaining.
1. Buddha Lo- Last week, I wondered if Buddha could tackle the “simpler” challenges as much as the eccentric ones. Well, he did! He crushed this challenge with something so simple but meaningful. Buddha proved tonight why he is the most well rounded chef of the bunch. He’s definitely the one to beat at this point.
With every week, it becomes harder and harder to predict the outcome. But with Sarah falling short, I think she’s a safe bet for an elimination, as the other 4 have just been so strong.
