Overview
- The duel, which aired Sunday, sent Roland Trettl and Lukas Mraz to Bratislava, Berlin, Karlstad and Transylvania to copy local dishes without recipes.
- Trettl drew a sushi assignment in Bratislava and said he was afraid of the task as he faced a strict Japanese team judging every move.
- The sushi mentors flagged specific errors by Trettl, including slicing fish without removing scales and guessing the rice-to-water ratio that they measure to within 10 milliliters.
- In Berlin, a complex sandwich challenge tripped Trettl up when his bread dough proofed poorly, the oven ran too hot, and he used milk instead of mayonnaise, earning 5.7 points from testers.
- Mraz misread rabbit as chicken in Romania and vented on camera, yet he still received 5.9 points there and later posted 6.9 for a mezze plate in Sweden.
