The winning dessert: Peanut Butter Nutella Krispie Bar
The perfect main course: Seared Duck Breast and Confit Leg with Sweet Potato Puree, Cabbage and Dried Cherry Sauce
Hosea says: "Rice Krispie bars make me think of Halloween - which makes me think of autumn. Duck, apples, cherries, yams – all flavors of this season and the warmer, fuller dishes that you see on the table."

The dessert: Red Hot Cinnamon Macaroons
The perfect main course: Poached Alaskan Halibut with Leeks and Champagne Beurre Blanc
Hosea says: "Macaroons are a source of much pride for great French chefs. A classic beurre blanc and a perfectly poached fish will allow the diner to appreciate the subtlety of a macaroon. It's all about balance and texture with this dish."

The dessert: Chocolate Chip Cookie
The perfect main course: Roast Chicken and Truffled Mac and Cheese
Hosea says: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!" A perfectly roasted whole chicken, sliced at the table to a slack-jawed group of hungry diners is peerless. A huge chocolate chip cookie, eaten straight out of the oven, dripping with molten chocolate, is in that same class."

The dessert: Chocolate Cake with Sour Cherry Compote and Greek Yogurt Ice Cream
The perfect main course: Rack of Colorado Lamb with Spinach-Goat Cheese Tartlets and Roasted Garlic Demi Glace
Hosea says: "Lamb and garlic is a perfect marriage of flavor. Spinach and goat cheese is also an incredible match. Put them all together on a plate and you have success! The dish is big and flavorful, which will not be overdone by the cake, but perfectly complemented by it."
