Each of these champs defeated five other All-Star Chefs in a row without a single loss to win their title. Not only are these chefs some of the most formidable competitors, but they are also close friends and colleagues of Alex, which will render the two rounds of cooking even more intense. It will be a battle for the ages to see if Alex can defeat these conquerors of the randomizer.
