And adrenaline runs so high that one chef does not realize that something has gone very wrong with his dish until it is too late. Then in the entree round, a prized piece of meat and a beautiful vegetable have the makings of a great main dish, but a sweet surprise in the basket may present "ye old yuletide" pitfall for the chefs.
