The eight remaining competitors must work together in teams to create a cohesive three-course meal.

The seven remaining chefs must create Japanese-inspired dishes for their bento boxes.

The six remaining chefs are tasked with recreating a "picture perfect" dish using just a photo. However, once the platform leaves, the photo goes with it, putting the contestant's memory and cooking skills to the test.

The final five chefs must create a dish that won't leave a sour taste in the judges' mouth by using kombucha, the trendy fermented drink. Then, two chefs battle for a spot in the semifinals by cooking a winning dish using a wok.

In the semi-finals, the final four chefs face a tangy twist as they're tasked with showcasing one of the classic taste elements. With limited time on the clock, every dash, pinch or sprinkle could mean the difference between securing a coveted spot in the grand finale or facing the heat in a final elimination cook-off.

The competition reaches its boiling point as the final three chefs race against the clock to craft a sensational three-course meal. With $250,000 and a year-long mentorship on the line, only one chef will rise to the top and claim the title of the Next Level Chef champion.
