/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Hey ro/ck/stars, welcome to the FINAL ROUND of the Second Annual /ck/ Top Master Iron Chef Ultimate Nightmare Kitchen Survivor Challenge!

The quick and dirty:
-submissions AND voting will be carried out in the same thread.
-we will not be allowing extra days for voting, all votes and entries must be submitted by midnight of the 7th, so try to complete your dish with enough time to attract votes.
-surprise penalties and benefits will be revealed at the end of each round.
-at least one contestant will be eliminated per round, based on a weighted cumulative moving average.

Additional information can be found on the Challenge blog.

Voting will be carried out in this thread. Please read the voting guidelines below.

Dishes are scored out of a total 20 points, based on 4 categories (worth a maximum of 5 points each); Presentation, Originality, Appeal and Challenge Goals. You may award 0's if you feel the contestant did not meet your expectations for a category.

-Presentation: The appearance of items on the plate; plating skills
-Originality: Creativity in composing the dish
-Appeal: How appetizing the food looks/whether or not the dish appeals to your personal taste as a voter
-Challenge Goals: How closely the entry followed the challenge goal(s)

The distinction between Presentation and Appeal: If someone submits an artfully arranged but burnt steak as an entry, it may score high in Presentation but low in Appeal.
