Congratulations to Paul Niedermann, Hell’s Kitchen 9 Winner
From AceShowBiz.com:
The junior sous chef from Davie, FL, nabs the head chef’s position at BLT Steak in NYC, and runner-up Will Lustberg is glad that it is Paul who beats him.
“Hell’s Kitchen” has crowned Paul Niedermann as the winner of its ninth season. The 26-year-old junior sous chef won the grand prize of the head chef’s position at BLT Steak in NYC and a $250,000 salary to go with it after passing the challenges in the season finale on Monday, September 19.
Niedermann started the final round well by winning the initial challenge in which the four remaining finalists had to make Chef Gordon Ramsay’s dish by tasting it and figuring the ingredients. He was the only one who guessed the right fish, Cod, and got Dodgers tickets for himself and his brother.
