Aktar Islam: "Are you happy with the cooking of the scallop?"

David: "Yeah, I'm happy with the cooking of the scallop. You don't want a rubber bullet."

Peers, tasting behind the scenes

"The tartare could have had a bit more seasoning for me"

"The actual main element of the dish is delicious."

"I mean, I absolutely love the scallop. Love that."

"So you got the bitterness of the citrus coming through on the jelly. And then you've got finger lime running through that as well."

"The finger lime adds a real pop and a real acidity."

"That's delicious. I love the scallop combination with the orange and the smoky thing on top."

Back in the judging room

Aktar Islam: "What's your opinion on the bread?"

David: "It's not ideal, Chef."

Aktar Islam: "Where do you think it's gone wrong?"

David: "I rushed the first proof."

Peers, tasting behind the scenes

"Bread's just not right. Just a bit under, I think."

"Yeah, the bread's a bit under proved."

Final Judging

Aktar Islam: "David, for your dish. "Try, try, try again". I thought the presentation was so playful. The roasted scallop was beautiful and cooked really well. The scallop tartare was a great use for scallops. And finger lime can be quite bitter. It dominated the scallop and you're left with a bitter flavor. The milk bread, I think, was a great idea. I really wish for you it had worked out."
