Jacob’s dish was a standout in the competition, featuring Mushroom and Sage Stuffed Chicken, served with fondant potatoes, glazed carrots, and a flavorful pea puree.

The combination of flavors and presentation impressed the judges, earning high praise for his talent and precision in the kitchen.

In a thrilling moment, Ian Marvell shared an exciting piece of news: Jacob has been invited to cook at the third round of the competition! This is a fantastic opportunity for Jacob to continue his journey and showcase his culinary abilities even further.
