After a Quickfire challenge where the chefs assigned each other classic tasks from seasons past \u2013 plus an eleventh hour twist \u2013 Mike Isabella claimed another victory from guest judge Wolfgang Puck for his braised pork, which he cooked in a pressure cooker. (Antonia had to use canned products for her meal, while Richard used hot dogs in his dish.)<\/p>\n

Richard was paired up with Puck, Mike got Bernstein and Antonia was to cook for Morimoto.<\/p>\n

The chefs had special requests: food that would conjure specific memories. For Puck, it meant reflecting on his childhood in Austria, and he requested comfort foods like goulash, strudel and spaetzle. <\/p>\n

Bernstein eschewed her Latin-Jewish heritage, opting for a Southern inspired meal of fried chicken and biscuits. Morimoto, meanwhile, went for traditional Japanese cuisine, asking for miso soup, rice and sashimi. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
