The feisty team from South Australia accused judge Colin Fassnidge of taking sides, but the chef has his own piece of advice for the mums.
Speaking to 7 NEWS.com.au about the bombshell moment, , fellow mum and self-described “classy bogan” Deanne, made it clear they have no plans to back down.
Know the news with the 7NEWS app:The pair know they’re likely to divide viewers, with Alisha accepting people will either “love us or hate us”. Alisha and Deanne walk out of the instant restaurant after calling out the use of the word ‘acid’.
“You will take me how I am. If you don’t enjoy me, that’s fine. We don’t have to be friends.
“I always think I’ve been through worse things in life than having someone’s judgment on who they think I am. “I understand people aren’t going to like me, but the people that love me, absolutely love me. Angus and Simon ultimately finished on 70 points, just two points behind leaderboard leaders Krysten and Lucy.
That attitude was put to the test during Tuesday night’s dinner, when South Australian best mates Angus and Simon welcomed the teams to their gastro-pub-inspired instant restaurant, Last Orders. But differences in the contestants’ upbringings and experiences quickly sparked tension around the table. Stylish foodies Jane and Shane, from NSW, admitted pubs weren’t their scene, saying they preferred “a little wine bar”.
As the teams continued discussing their overseas travels, Alisha and Deanne felt compelled to speak up about their own backgrounds.
“Me and Dee didn’t have that sort of lifestyle. We grew up real. We grew up a bit rougher,” Alisha said. Angus and Simon served a menu featuring a wagyu sausage roll with caramelised onion chutney and kimchi for entrée, gochujang chicken parmi with enoki fries and green apple slaw for main and a coconut panna cotta for dessert.
Tensions erupt, with Alisha calling out ‘fake contestants’. When Victorian contestant Tiffany said it needed more “acid or vinegar”, Alisha questioned the terminology.used the word “acid” in his own critique, Alisha felt singled out and humiliated.
“We’ve been made to seem like we’re pretty much idiots,” she said. “People think we just have no idea what we’re talking about. ” Eventually, Alisha reached breaking point and stormed out of the instant restaurant: “I’ve been made to look like an absolute idiot. I’m just done with it.
I’m absolutely done. ” Deanne followed her outside, with the pair initially refusing to return to the table before Fassnidge confronted them.
“No, I was just trying to prove a point,” Fassnidge told 7NEWS.com.au. “And I was trying to go, you know what? What the guys actually said was true. And if maybe you stop talking for long enough, you might learn, which she eventually does.
”Credit: Seven While the mums from South Australia are adamant about being themselves and speaking their minds, Fassnidge warned their fiery approach could come back to bite them.
“It’s like, in previous years that if you upset people, they’re going to hold all the grudge,” Fassnidge said. “It’s human nature that gets in the way sometimes, and it’s usually the people who sit and be quiet that usually do the best. After taking some time to cool down, Alisha and Deanne eventually returned to the dinner, but not without making it clear they believed some of their fellow contestants were being “fake”.
Now, with their own instant restaurant on the horizon, the mums are determined to prove they’re more than meets the eye. Alisha and Deanne are next to cook and have warned their fellow contestants not to “judge a book by its cover”. Despite their rocky start, they’re feeling more fired up than ever.
“Obviously the first night we’re feeling a little bit out of place. And the second night, the walk out happened. Alisha added: “There’s no shutting us down at all. ” Angus and Simon ultimately finished on 70 points, just two points behind leaderboard leaders Krysten and Lucy.
