JUSTICE FOR MIKE! He really deserves a redo of his "dream meal" that isnt just taking the piss...
I will keep upvoting comments on this until it happens, Mike deserves a redo
... with Ben, Kush and James cooking...
YES AGREED!
absolutely
10000%
Justice for Mike. Give him his redo
but without the questions. you can go through the videos and know his favourite dishes
fried chicken
pork knuckle with mash
just make the guy his best menu from his likes
@@thirteendigital341 Mike has a palette close to my heart, good simple food celebrated well. the boys do a great job with the fancy and luxury food, but for Mike I think they just needed to do these homecooked meals to the absolute highest standard. and why did they serve him fish
@@tompugh5566 literally!
Give the man chicken wings, beer, pork knuckle and mash
Any news on actually celebrating Mike by giving him a proper Dream Menu instead of that tosh he got?
Always love that the main comment on these is that Mike deserves a better Dream Menu.
Ok but I gotta say Mike soloing the dessert is brilliant! Kush 100% trusts his skills! Jamie needs supervision still lol 😅
At the same time, though, he feels like he's third wheeling through Kush and Jamie's bromance. :p
Jamie might eat up the ingredients. He is a snacker
Kush is a born teacher. I always love how happy he seems when the "normals" know stuff and leading them to answers to try and get them to think for themselves.
He sounded genuinely excited when Jamie nailed the consommé. That's a man you want teaching you.
You can tell he's used to working in high end teamwork kitchens. He's got a very natural leadership that just comes out of him among cooks in the kitchen.
If this was a contest, Ben got the rewards but Mike got the win! He worked almost independently on the dessert and Ben scored it the highest! Well done, Mike!
No Huttlestorm either, just working quietly in the background
Mike quietly just soldiering on in the background whilst Kush and Jamie are being silly 😂💙
Justice for Mike! Redo it! After Ben got an absolute banger of a dream menu he deserves it
Loved this! I still think Mike needs a re-do! #JusticeforMike
Mike still deserves a redo after that awful dream menu of his.
Mike needs a massive shout out for the dessert - he pretty much made the entire thing himself where as Jamie had HEAPS of help. Well done Mike!
This was so so good... Ben really deserves it... Also kudos to Mike for almost single-handedly creating the dessert. Great job! Hope he gets a redo of his dream menu too.
I love how Kush is just telling Mike what he wants him to make and giving very little directions and feedback. That shows Kush has great trust in Mike’s ability. ☺️
I gotta say, I love how Kush works in the kitchen with the normals, almost like he's gentle parenting them 😂 he has a very wholesome and helpful energy!
We need one for James and Kush, too! And hopefully a do over for poor Mike's- he got shafted on his one...
Yes for both chefs and agreed for Mike. Definitely need a redo for that
Agreeed
Agreed @@Matsuna13
@@Matsuna13Right!? I’m seeing others in the comments requesting a do over for Mike, too!
Justice for Mike!
The Glasses-Eel connection is actually stronger, there's a stage of Eel development when they're known as Glass Eels
Ooooh that's super interesting. Thank you for sharing :)
@@SortedFood you're most welcome
Haha, I was shouting that at my phone!
Out of curiosity, how did you know that lol?
@@arshaddahlan I like shows about nature, and I was interested by the fact that eel reproduction isn't really understood, so learned a fair bit about them
Yay! I love that Ben finally got his dream menu. (And, unlike Mike's it was a real success! I still think Mike deserves a do-over...)
You should ask Kush "Blowtorch or blender?" For obvious reasons. *g*
Those have to be the most beautiful plates ever presented on sorted. Please never get rid of Kush. I beg you guys do like an advanced plating course/series
That would be nice. I'm terrible at plating.
Ben: “Cryptic.”
Also Ben: “ABBA or Blue Cheese?”
Kush is such an incredible human. He’s ridiculously talented as a chef and hilarious when digging at the normals, but also super wholesome and supportive when guiding them through stuff
Love that Mike's dessert got the highest marks
I really enjoyed this, it has that same goofy questons set up but the fact they were genuinely trying to impress Ben and aim at the things he loves was really lovely. Also it was nice to have Kush helping Jaime and Mike in his own gentle way. I liked not having the time pressure on top that often make the guys frantic and Kush get laser focused, blend everything, chuck sauces in pots and bread straight on a hob. Sometimes cooking food for your friends can just be wholesome and nice!
Absolutely! Beautifully said!
we still need justice for mike! he needs a re-do of his!!
Having them try as hard as possible to impress Ben is absolutely heartwarming. I love cooking for people and this is peak friendship. What a delight!
And because we're here, Justice for Mike!!
Oh, how well the Normals play with Kush! Normals always eager to learn and Kush ready to help explore, this video was a great demonstration of how much their interpersonal dynamics have evolved. What a great watch! Thanks, Sorted Team!
So glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!
@@SortedFood❤
I came here to comment this same thing! I've really liked seeing the boys push their skills a little harder in the past couple episodes too. It's nice seeing how far they've come where even the chefs are acknowledging them
@@zwood625 Yes! It's lovely to get to see them grow in their skills and also grow together.
They love their Kushy Bear 4:41
I love how mischievous yet deeply affectionate the dream menu videos are. Like they're so cheeky, but they're also 100% built from how much they care about each other as friends.
I can't believe Ben didn't pick up on the bay leaf in the cocktail! They add so much!!
And nobody mentioned that "Basil" in the cocktail could have been another nod to "Barry/Baz"
The boys knocked this one out of the park! Ebbers absolutely deserves this and they delivered big time. Can’t wait to see where they go with Kush - such a great series!
“Start with jelly and end with jelly.” Ben’s dream menu was a jelly sandwich.
A reverse jelly sandwich, if you will
noooooooooo. A main course sandwich on a jelly BUN
The way Mike said “That’s offensive” when Ben picked Barry 😂😂
YES! Ebbers more than deserves this! His geeky enthusiasm and energy are always welcome! Hope he enjoys this! We love you ebbers❤❤❤❤❤
I totally agree, and I think Kush, Jamie and Mike really created Bens dream menu !
Mystified as to how Kush manages to be so wildly more skilled than the normals without ever being patronizing. Like, he could have done all of this by himself in the same time, but it genuinely felt like a team effort. Love it.
You’re right! He comes across as a truly natural teacher who genuinely wants to encourage and gently lead people to learn and understand how ingredients work. You can see from his reactions that he seems to take joy from watching the Normals pick up new stuff- like a parent with young kids. It helps of course that the Normals are just as eager and open to learning. That’s what made this such a good watch.
Trust me simply because you can do it, doesn't make it pleasant but really stressful to manage that many pots. I used to occasionally knock over a pot by its handle.
Kush guiding and teaching Jamie and Mike (but particularly Jamie) was such a nice moment. When Kush is not in chaos mode, he really shines as a teacher/mentor
Mike needs a proper dream meal!! He was so careful making bens, he deserves a part 2 :)) #justiceformike
Something Sorted viewers may want to watch. Ben will be appearing on the next episode of "Ainsley's National Trust Cook Off" - Episode 9. They'd mentioned that Ben had been cooking with Ainsley Harriott during the "Washed Up Weekend" & I checked Ainsley's & The National Trust's websites the other day. It should air in the coming week on the UK's ITV.
@@Getpojke o, good headsup, thanks!
@@noangelthis YMW. The shows aren't very long, but the series is good. Ainsley is always good fun.
@@Getpojke :) Will check it out!
Mike still needs a redo :(
Get over it.
The Mike episode was the funniest so far with the results of Mike enjoying the one they hated most being brilliant.
@@lukestarford7608 Fuck off. It was not funny and Mike hated it, he was just being nice.
Nope…still waiting on mikes redemption video 🕺
And a sous-chef apron apparently.
@@lukestarford7608 You seem rude
Yay for Ebbers!! (can we also get a redo for Mike? i feel like he got gypped on his)
Watching kush’s mind work throughout this with additions is mental and so cool to see
I love seeing Kush in a teaching role like this, he's genuinely so supportive and encouraging of the normals it's heartwarming 😊
Kush is so good at this. You are lucky you guys found each other - he's such a good fit.
Mike for the win for going solo for an amazing dessert, Kush for such creative ideas....loving the jelly start and end, and trotters with fish....woah. Ben deserves this dream meal. enjoy watching him eat when he loves the food, a lot of heart.
4:40 "Kushy Bear." that was adorable. More straight guys need to have pet names for their friends.
Tbh, I would have just said "fish pie and wine, and that's sorted for Ben's dream meal".
But this was incredible! Well done, and well-deserved!
and a cheeseboard
I think Mike deserves a dream food day after his! Breakfast. Brunch, lunch, cocktails the works
I love the way Kush (a master Chef) talks and works with the normals. Working with their strengths and weakness' very respectfully and with kindness.
0:44 Ok but we need Ben as this Metal loving Goth Guy for Halloween or something.
Watch the earlier vids with the spikey Ben hair.
I love how happy Ebbers looks while enjoying the meal.
haha I like how the camera pans in on Cush when he's explaining face to face it makes it look like he's teaching school kids lol but it definitely works :P
Have to say, I really like how Kush speaks to the boys when they're working together. Very direct, but very complimentary. Exactly what you need in that (and many other) environment.
i loved this episode a ton!! ben got a well deserved treat!! would love you guys to try this concept with a stranger, so you can only base it on the questions and no previous knowledge. would be a fun experiment!
That would be a great experiment, thanks for the idea!
@@SortedFoodMaybe not even a complete stranger! What about some of the chefs/cooks you guys had for the sub 10 min burger challenge? Like they were all so fun and you know them and of them, but maybe not exactly what they personally prefer. Would love to see one for Poppy!
I love the care the guys wanted to take with the menu for Ebbers. It reminds me of the first time you cook for your parents at holiday.
So lovely to see Ben finally getting his dream menu. Also loving the justifications for some of the ingredients: … because Ben. 😂
I absolutely love the way that Kush educates and explains even as he delegates and works.
I just can’t help but chuckle over how far fetched some of the reasons for including some of the ingredients seem.
“He chose glasses because he needs them to see, so seasoning and sea.”
Absolutely brilliant! 😂
😆😆😆
Me too. When they said eel I thought their tenuous connection would be glass eels but apparently I didnt go tenuous enough🤣
@@aussiecountry9320 I couldn’t stop laughing at the pigs trotters one. 😂
I love watching Kush teach the normals in a "serious" challenge. He's so good and comfortable at it, it's really cool to see
this channel is literaly the best cooking show with the best people
You're too kind, thank you!
@@SortedFood no thankyou guys for the great content!!
@@miketequieza6197Love these guys as well as Babbish and his crew and Mythical! All good fun to watch.
@@vivakatrob13 ye definelty! You ever watch Brad Leoni from Bon appetite? He makes his own content on RUclips has for a while it’s great stuff to!
10:20 kushs exasperation at not being drunk had me dead. The deepest sigh and them jumps to “I’ll fix that!” *pop* ❤️❤️
"Season...With me" Kush keeping Jamie in order is delightful to see. You can see Jamie waiting to explode into chaos around the room!
I'd love to see a dream meal of some of the behind the scenes staff! Some of the names we hear all the time but don't see on camera often. If they're okay with being on camera / being filmed for the episode. Get both chefs involved in it too so its extra special!
Please do this for the whole cast!! This was so fun to watch!!
Swoon and wow! Kush, Jaime, and Mike you did a wonderful job. I am so happy Ben got to enjoy a dream menu. Looking forward to seeing Kush enjoy his dream menu. Great job everyone!
I love how tenuous some of the links were to the food and choices Ben made. Brilliant work everyone x
That was lovely! I think both Ben and James should cook for Kush.
I think one of the questions that should be asked is "Cylinders or Cubes?" Knowing how Kush tends to be all about presentation and classical knife work, I think it'd be fun to see how everyone else might tackle the different cuts that could be done.
Looked delicious, and it was a delight to watch just seeing Kush enjoying himself so much in the cooking. I think I could watch Kush cook all day.
It's really a joy to see Kush teaching the boys in these episodes! I can't wait to see Mike's redo.
Bring James in!! Maybe Poppy and the other chefs Sorted has collaborated with! ALSO REDEMPTION FOR MIKE PLS
That was just fascinating. Kush has a wonderfully active imagination.
I was re-watching the london and edinburgh marathon today, can we please get some more marathons!!!! They were so good.
Where would you like us to explore?
@@SortedFoodWe need one in Washington state!!
@@SortedFood Dublin, Ireland? Or some European countries and cities in them. The fact we haven't seen sorted in Italy yet😶😶 And ireland would definitely give some ideas for the sorted pub too!!!
I have been saying it for a long time, it's time the boys rent an RV and go on a europe journey, three of them are dads now, will fit right in driving the RV😂😂
@@SortedFood The london food scene is dynamic... maybe just a redo of that? Or wherever you're traveling to next... Like the Dubai one
@@SortedFood Berlin would be fun & interesting!
I love when the boys make something for Ben. He's so great at providing feedback, which is even better when he has no idea what to expect.
How beautiful does everything look! We see a lot of good looking food on this channel, hence the sexies, but they really pulled out all the stops, for this one! Well done, boys👏
For Kush, as he is an anarchist, you need the two most chaotic chefs, Slater and Poppy, plus Ben to play cat herder, it would be torture for him and absolutely hilarious 😂
The boys had to become Mr. Fantastic to make glasses work. Meanwhile lentils are just waiting be called the little lens they are.
I recognize a bottle of Tozai's Snow Maiden when I see it. Easily my favorite sake. It's like drinking honeysuckle.
3:14 They really reached and we all love wordplay in this house 😂
I really really loved watching Kush absolutely command the kitchen! His experience and confidence just shines through and it was so entertaining seeing him and the boys all cook together 😊
1:38 The Allotment has entered the chat WOOOOOOOOO
Jamie not know how to open or pour a Ramune is hilarious, and Kush’s jump at the marble plunking in is even better
Justice for Mike! Come on, guys. Don't leave us frothing at the mouths like this.
For Kush I think Mom or Dad. Mom for heartwarming like food from your childhood. Dad for business dinners where you order the most expensive item because it's not on your dime.
I might try this for my wife. She doesn’t watch the show so would have zero idea about the purpose of random questions.
I love that Kush was 100% confident that Mike would get things done by himself with only some suggestions, whereas Jamie needed additional support. Loved that Ben (unlike Mike) had them seriously trying to make a dream menu for Ben.
I know Kush is next, but I SINCERELY hope that #JusticeforMike is still coming for us!
This makes me happy! ❤however can mike have another one!
I love the supportive way Kush helps Mike❤ and works with Jay's creativity.
Your use of Ben’s answers in this meal reminds me of a rhyming slang, especially with the eel.
18:45 Omg when Kush slaps Jamie's tummy and says "nice high bar" and Jamie smiles so wide! You can simply FEEL the comraderie I love these boys so much T_T
Daaaaaammmn... That looked stellar.
Ebbers still digging in at the end, nice!
Thanks! Would you have enjoyed these dishes?
@@SortedFood Oh heck yes, just down my alley. Just minus the wine, more a gin type😝
Kush gentle parenting the normals is just brilliant 😂
As I keep watching I love this video more and more. Yay! We love a happy Ebbers
Really great video. The boys looked like they were having a blast working in the kitchen! I would love to see a video of them them making a menu from the opposite options.
Soo excited for this! Ebbers definitely deserves this!
You should totally do another video for each of these creating a meal with every answer they didn't choose! I want to see what the alternative thoughts were
Ben’s dream menu? Oh this should be fun! Low-key want him to be passy aggers throughout because he can’t just make a risotto.
Happy Sunday, everyone!
This was great, cracking meal and lovely how they really wanted Ben to enjoy it. You're all so wholesome!
#JusticeforMike, he deserves a re-do because he did not get a good dream menu at all! Mike was servely disappointed with his dream menu..
What I greatly enjoy about this format is, that it allows for combinations of things that the recipient usually wouldn't think of themselves. And yet almost every dish that is served hits the spot. Even for someone as particular as Ebbers.
You guys missed the chance to put a happy meal in front of him first to just start it off xD
That would have been absolutely hilarious! Noted for a future episode 😂
Make it into a fast food makeover! But start with just the happy meal on its own.
The trick of folding the fish is brilliant
Loving this already🙌🏽 Still waiting on Mikes redemption/redo 😉
