In the 10th episode of the 30th season of Guy's Grocery Games, titled "Cooking the Books," four chefs face off in a culinary competition where they must use their speed and creativity to whip up delicious dishes using ingredients selected by host Guy Fieri.
The first challenge requires the chefs to create a meal using only ingredients whose prices are listed in odd numbers. With only 30 minutes on the clock, the chefs must navigate the aisles of the grocery store and choose their ingredients carefully to stay under budget while making sure their dishes are both flavorful and visually appealing.
For the second challenge, the chefs head to the checkout stand to see how much money they have left over from their first round shopping spree. They then have to use that exact amount to create a dish that represents a special date or occasion in their lives. From birthdays to anniversaries to first dates, the chefs must put their personal twist on their dishes to impress the judges.
In the final round, the two remaining chefs must create a dish using ingredients from a cookbook chosen by Guy. However, there's a catch: they can only use the ingredients listed in the index. With no idea which ingredients they'll have to work with, the chefs must quickly scan the cookbook to find recipes that use the ingredients they've been given and then get to work creating their own unique interpretation.
Throughout the episode, Guy keeps the energy high, providing both encouragement and playful banter as the chefs navigate the challenges and race against the clock. At the end, only one chef will emerge victorious and take home the grand prize, earning bragging rights as well as a hefty sum of cash.
"Cooking the Books" is a fast-paced, high-stakes competition that showcases the talent, creativity, and speed of some of the best chefs in the game. With unexpected challenges and ingredients, viewers are kept on the edge of their seats as they watch the chefs work their magic in the grocery store and kitchen.
