Gregg said: “Thomas has a definitive style. He takes the ordinary and make it extraordinary. I really admire Thomas. He wants to take all the foods that he grew up with and make them better.
“He has delighted me all the way through the competition and today I think his three courses were just exceptional. They had his heart and his soul in every single forkful.”
While John added: “Thomas is a real talent and his food has always been about putting a smile on your face. I admire Thomas’ work ethic, he’s a grafter.
“He’s able to take a classic and deliver it with real style and finesse. That’s the gift of a great cook.
“He knows exactly the direction he wants to go in and, for me, his food today tasted fantastic.”
