He admired the restraint of contestants Leigh and Kristie, who did the kitchen in the boys’ house. “You know, I think, actually, a lot of people would have been tempted to really turn the volume up on the dressing in a space like this. A lot more colour and a lot more pizazz.” Instead, he says, the pantry area was full of colour, allowing the main kitchen to reflect a more refined palette.
