Pyet DeSpain, another potential winner of the show, is a confident and creative chef who started her business, called Pyet’s Plate, in 2016. Her specialty is working with indigenous fusion foods.

During her time at the culinary school, she learned almost everything there is to know about the world of cooking, all whilst traveling across over 30 countries.
