Episodes
Episode 1
In this episode, Gary takes on his best friend, Mark Heirs, Scotland's premier private chef. Mark is a man more used to cooking for the rich and famous on super yachts using foie gras rather than fish paste, and more at home with white truffles than the white bread he finds in today's corner shop in Stirling.
Episode 2
In this episode, Gary is facing off against Bombay street food specialist Rachna Dheer in the tiny village of Balmaclellan in Dumfries and Galloway. Will Rachna's fashionable fast food prove a hit with the judges, made up of locals farmers, or will they side with Gary's more traditional fayre? This shop may be a cut above most corner shops, but how far can Gary and Rachna make their £15 stretch?
Episode 3
In this episode, Gary is pitched against one of Scotland's rising stars of the kitchen, Julie Lin MacLeod, as they travel to the sleepy Ayrshire village of Dunlop.
