Favourite dish: Shrimp wantons. It combines two great ingredients: oil and seafood.

First impression upon walking into the kitchen? “I felt confident in the knowledge that my dish would be compared to Lackner’s, a man whose expertise fails to go beyond Jell-O.”

Inspiration for dish of choice (stir-fry)? “I chose to do something rice-based, since it would only take one minute for the rice to cook. Their rice was kind of fancy — mine takes FIVE minutes to cook!”
