In the season two premiere, Gordon Ramsay raises the stakes in his search for the next great food and beverage entrepreneur by heading to London and facing off against famed hospitality industry leader and TV Personality Lisa Vanderpump. Hopeful entrepreneurs pitch themselves to mentors Gordon and Lisa as they vie for one of the seven spots up for grabs on each expert’s team.

The three finalists must craft a pitch that encompasses themselves and their businesses to a room full of industry professionals; Gordon and Lisa crown the Season Two winner.

With Gordon and Lisa’s teams set, the culinary entrepreneurs are tasked with kickstarting a brand-new business venture from zero to profit in just 24 hours. The profit-based challenge brings the teams to London’s Battersea Power Station, where they must create a bespoke menu that they will then market and sell to a group of hungry customers. The team with the lowest profits must then face Gordon and Lisa and one entrepreneur will be sent home.

Teams Ramsay and Vanderpump are challenged to create unique concept bars that stand out in a crowded market. From curating the cocktail menu to choosing the decor, the entrepreneurs must create an immersive experience that will be judged purely on customer feedback. Then, one member of the losing team it eliminated from the competition.

The 12 remaining entrepreneurs partner with Delish, the most engaged international food media brand, to maximize their promotional abilities. Teams Ramsay and Vanderpump are each tasked with creating a Fourth of July inspired recipe that can be easily recreated from a 30-minute, worldwide livestream cook-a-long demonstration. Then, the losing team must face Gordon and Lisa who will choose one entrepreneur to eliminate from the competition.
