The two grand finalists for MasterChef Australia 2024 have been revealed.
In the thrilling semi-final, contestants Savindri Perera, Josh Perry (aka Pezza) and Nat Thaipun were tasked with designing their own menu and preparing a three-course meal for 20 diners and the judges.
The challenge was demanding for the three chefs, who were on their feet for five hours.
In the challenge, Savindri took the opportunity to try and showcase all that Sri Lankan cuisine could be, however, he struggled with time management issues.
In the end, Savindri failed to impress the judges as much as humble Tasmanian butcher Pezza and daredevil Nat, who emerged as the two grand finalists.
Following the couple’s victory, the results were shared on the MasterChef Australia Instagram page.
The photo shows the moment when Nat and Pezza discovered they had reached the grand final.
‘Let’s join together to congratulate our grand finalists of MasterChef 2024!’ the message read.
