Top Chef season 15: Who was eliminated in the first episode?

It was Wednesday March 13 that the fifteenth season of Top Chef kicked off. A high-tension start where new culinary talents had to prove themselves in front of an exceptional jury, made up of star chefs Paul Pairet, Philippe Etchebest, Glenn Viel, Dominique Crenn, Stéphanie Le Quellec and Hélène Darroze.

The first test: An egg, A pear, A carrot!

The first challenges saw participants confront three key ingredients – a simple egg, the sweetness of the pear and the humility of the carrot. These everyday elements have transformed into real gastronomic puzzles. Each challenge in turn tested the creativity and technique of our courageous crazy chefs.

However, it was the eliminatory test which sealed the fate of two candidates, who saw their journey in season 15 of Top Chef stop suddenly. Despite a fierce battle and dishes which undoubtedly aroused flavors and emotions, the verdict inevitably fell.

It was also an opportunity to observe the formation of the brigades, the individual dynamics that emerged and, certainly, the departures which tinged this first episode with a touch of melancholy.

The two candidates eliminated

Thibault Marchand and Inès Trontin were therefore eliminated from the competition.

The next episode will take place on Wednesday March 20 at 9:10 p.m. on M6.
