Mike Yakura returns (with a new haircut), and as you know, he doesn't like to mince words. I thought Sam's dish was by far the most creative, and he utilized all three condiments. Marcel and Cliff used the mayo in more classic and straightforward fashion, as dressing for meat on a stick ("everybody loves it dude!"), and as a binder in a steak tartare. I have to agree with Mike Yakura on Midgely's quesadilla, I am not a fan of seafood and cheese together in general, and the idea of Midge eating mayo straight out of a jar makes me want to vomit.
Elia's dish was interesting, and I thought her play on sweet and savory using the barbecue sauce was very creative. While slightly amusing, it's hard to ignore the fact that Ilan can't help but take a dig at Marcel during the quickfire. If you ask me, his intention to poke fun interfered with him actually winning the challenge.
