‘Tears and tantrums’ expected for Ireland’s Celebrity Head Chef
Six celebrities will battle it out in the kitchen over five nights as they try to impress the controversial chef.
One celebrity taking part is Adele King, better known as Twink, who loves baking and might teach Gallagher a thing or two.
Other celebrities hoping to impress Gallagher and win the top €10,000 prize for their favourite charity are X-Factor star Wagner Carriho, presenter and actor Michael Hayes, model and model scout Kohlin Harris and Crystal Swing keyboard player and director Mary Burke.
Apprentice star Geraldine O’Callaghan, who is also taking part, will have a lot to learn, because she has not got a clue about cooking.
On the first episode on TV3 on Monday night the celebrities aim to impress with their favourite dishes but Gallagher, the youngest chef to ever win a Michelin star, declares it a complete disaster.
The atmosphere reaches boiling point on the second night as Mary takes Gallagher on and insists on an apology for his criticism. Meanwhile, Wagner is romancing the ladies while cheating with his cheesecake.
On the third night the celebrities aim to impress three experienced chefs and critics, while behind the scenes Twink is having a bit of trouble with the male wannabe chefs.
Gallagher takes over the kitchen in a bid to deliver a six-course meal to Michelin star standards.
On the eve of the final the celebrities will have to cook for one of Ireland’s most successful football clubs, Shamrock Rovers. There are tears as Mary and Kohlin implode and Michael is let down by Wagner.
There is a specially extended show for the final night on Friday, screened live in The Dining Room in Dublin’s, La Stampa.
