Tonight on FOX Gordon Ramsay’s Hell’s Kitchen returns with an all new Wednesday October 15, season 13 episode 7 called, “12 Chefs Compete.” On tonight’s episode the teams are tasked to create dishes inspired by Italian operas, after which the winners receive a shopping trip and a VIP dinner in West Hollywood. Later, the chefs prepare Italian food for special guests during the dinner service.
On last week’s episode, in the last team challenge, contestants were challenged to pick their proteins as they herded farm animals into their proper pens and decided which proteins and starch they would use next in the kitchen. The team that successfully created unique protein and starch dishes, impressing Chef Ramsay, as well as guest judges and Animal restaurant chef-owners Jon Shook and Vinny Dotolo, earned a relaxing wine tour in Santa Barbara, while the losing team prepared the stock bones for the next dinner service. Later, during the dinner service, tempers flared between contestants, but both teams had to put their issues behind them as they made their dishes and serve VIP guests, including members of the Dine LA Board of Directors, Olympic gold medalist Alyson Felix and NHL player Willie Mitchell. Did you watch the last episode? If you missed it, we have a full and detailed recap right here for you.
On tonight’s episode, in the next challenge, the teams must create Italian opera-inspired dishes and go head-to-head against a member of the other team. The team that earns the most points from Chef Ramsay and guest judge Chef Celestino Drago will win a $3,000 shopping trip and VIP dinner at Cecconi’s in West Hollywood, while the losing team will prepare the squid for the next dinner service. Later, during the dinner service, teams will prepare Italian dishes for VIP guests, including members of the Italian Consulate. After nerves in the kitchen lead to two major mistakes and one team is kicked out of the kitchen, both teams will have to present teammates for elimination. Find out who will move on and who will be kicked out for good.

We are back from what we saw last week, Gordon says he’s not going to continue banging his head against the wall; he tells Roe to get back in line and tells Sterling to take off his jacket because his team gave up on him so he’s on the red team. Sterling is confident and very accepting of his change of sides, Steve is sent back to his blue team. Jennifer is not liking Sterling much and doesn’t feel he takes this serious enough, she is not confident he can help their team. They walk into the kitchen to see Gordon witha giant map of Italy, Gordon introduces a bunch of opera singers; on the scrolls of the opera singers are dishes they must cook. Frank chooses Roe to be his challenger, he gets a cheese manicotti. Sterling chooses Bryant and they got Fettucine Alfredo. Fernando and Ashely are going against each other. Jennifer and Steve decide to challenge each other. Aaron decides he’s going against Sade, everyone is ready for war with they match ups.
Their time is up and Gordon introduces Celestino Drago, first up is Jennifer and Steven; the winner of the two is Jennifer. Next up is Ashley and Fernando, the winner of the battle is Fernando. Next up is Sade and Aaron, the winner of the two was a tie. Next up is Roe and Frank, the winner is Frank for the blue team. Next up is Sterling and Bryant, the winner of the battle is Bryant and the blue team wins. The blue team is going to shop with $3,000. They will then have lunch at one of the finest Italian restaurants. The red team has to make squid ink pasta by hand; the red team is real sick of losing.
The red team is getting tired of Sterling, none of them are that happy about him being on their team; Jennifer is really worried about the dinner service and the girls are getting very annoyed with him.
Gordon tells his chefs that they have many important VIP guests and they must cook with full confidence and bring 100% effort to it, he doesn’t want any mistake happening. Steve is really out of it and seems very lost on what he has to do, Gordon is noticing how slow he is and is getting very annoyed with his lack of speed. Gordon brings back Steve’s risoto, he’s so disappointed by how embarrassing that dish was.
Jennifer is trying to get her team on a great start, the red team are doing a good job. Though Steve is really going way too slow with bringing food up, Bryant loves talking to people he doesn’t know and he’s sadly slipping up a bit while doing his job; it’s a little awkward for hime. Though Sade is working hard to keep up with her team in the kitchen, though she is falling behind quite a bit; she actually drops some clams.
Jennifer is getting annoyed with Sade struggling with such an easy job, the blue team is doing their best but are really messing up on the meat; Frank is doing his best to restart. Gordon wants perfection from the teams tonight and the pressure is hitting them hard. Aaron is not communicating at all and Gordon notices he’s needing help; Aaron is refusing help and shoving Steve off. Gordon tells Aaron to stop holding everyone back and to stop telling everyone to leave him alone since he is obviously not able to do his job alone. Gordon gets a plate back to the red kitchen, raw calamari and it is bland as well; Gordon tells everyone to leave the red kitchen since they are pathetic.
The blue team is on their last ticket though, Gordon is really tired of their crap. He can’t believe how horrible the teams preformed tonight, they ar all lost and disorganized. He wants two people from each team that they’d be better off without, Jennifer hates her team. All the girls decide on kicking Ashley off since she had the raw calamari, they also decide on Roe going up; now the girls are arguing amongst each other.
The blue time is getting really angry and Aaron is pissed off that he’s got to go back up on the shopping block, the guys are deciding that Steve should go up since he’s slow; though Steve says he wants Frank up their for bringing raw food.
The chefs all gather together and Gordon is really amazed at how horrible the peroformances are this far in, red team decided they have Ashley and Roe going up on the chopping block. The blue team decides that Aaron and Steve because of how slow he is. Gordon calls them all up to the front, Steve says that he has a lot of fight and doesn’t beleive he should be here. Aaron says that he will be better tomorrow and can recover from his mistakes. Ashely says she has had one dinner service and really wants to work with him and makes sure to improve. Roe says she is good enough to stay. Gordon decides Ashley is leaving tonight, Ashley is pretty depressed about being kicked out.
THE END!
