Also, it seems ths season has an "Adventure theme"

I’ve learned that in one challenge, the chefs parachute from a plane carrying all the cooking utensils they can. They reportedly land in a field of sheep and lambs and have to immediately host a barbecue.

We like Keane and we liked Cyrus when we dined there a long time ago.

We recently had dinner at Bryan's Range and it was very good.

I'm surprised Burke made it this far - kinda floating by on his reputation, because I can't imagine he cooks very much any more.
