Don’t miss the dramatic finale!
In the long-awaited finale of Come Dine With Me, Season 4, watch the drama unfold as Siphosihle, Zak, Ed, and Tumelo battle it out to win the coveted cash prize.
On the first night Siphosihle, a help-desk supervisor, hopes to stun her guests with a menu of smoked salmon terrine and homemade pumpkin rolls for starters, pork belly for the main meal (with a side of pumpkin) and a dessert involving champagne jelly. But, with a hair on a fork and a guest who absolutely hates pumpkin, the only guarantee is that there will be drama.
Tech store manager, Zakariya, is up next. His menu is quite simple (as the other guests point out) – mussels in white wine and garlic sauce for starters, wood-fired picanha with butternut for mains and a Simple Manhattan (butter cheesecake) for dessert. But with a night full of pranks, will Zakariya be a gracious host or will drama hit the fan?
Night three is food blogger Ed’s time in the limelight. With his career at stake, Ed needs to impress with a menu of a cold mint cucumber soup with prawn salsa for starters, pan fried salmon with a honey glaze for the main course and a chocolate mousse with berries for a scrumptious dessert. Will his experience as a blogger do him or justice or is it a case of those who can’t do… blog? And can he take the criticism that he so easily dishes out?
On the final night in the series we say hello to diva Tumelo. Will her menu of a sushi salad with garlic prawns for starters, oxtail ready to ‘fall off the bone’ for mains and a dessert called ‘Death by Chocolate’ put her in the winning seat?
Who will survive the week of spicy personalities and take home the R10 000 cash prize? Tune in to find out.
