Dishes from this MasterChef ™ contestant
Chef Kyle: "I am taking you guys to Minnesota. I am representing Kansas City, but I work for a brewery based in Minneapolis. I've been to the state fair a bunch. I think it's really cute that a lot of the competitors think that their hometowns have the best state fairs. The state fair of Minnesota is actually the premier culinary event in the country. My favorite dish up north is walleye fries. So I'm trying to elevate it. I'm going to deep fry some lobster, and you're going to get fennel, apple, celery, salad."
