Come Dine with Me Canada

- Season 4

(2013)

Kicking off the barbeque week is frazzled single mom April Williams. Joining her around the dinner table are abrasive American Adam Whisler, rocker dad Ron Robson, biker babe Kyla Turner and life of the party Raj Bhatia.

Taking his turn behind the barbeque is abrasive American Adam Whisler. Adam is confident that Yankees barbeque better and he's ready to prove it. Will the cocky hipster come out as king of the Q or will he be out-grilled by a Canuck?

Rocker dad Ron Robson hosts. Tonight Ron plans on being a triple threat, using a barbeque, a smoker and a roast box. During the mingle, the dinner guests are shocked to find out Ron's roasting a full pig for their main course.

Tough and tatted Kyla hosts and is out to prove that girls can grill!!. Will Kyla's ups and downs send our biker babe off course? Or will she cruise to the winner's circle and earn bragging rights of Come Dine With Me "Grill Master"?

It's the grand finale of Come Dine With Me's first ever "Grill Masters" BBQ baste off and hosting is none other than rambunctious Raj. Raj has been the butt of jokes all week but he's determined to not to make an ass of himself tonight.

The five hosts are: door-to-door fundraiser James Currie, Barbara Egarhos, a fitness fanatic; graphic designer Rose Fillcoff, part time events planner Katie Pitt, and Myron Simic, who is a perfectionist.

Fit and flirty Barbara Egarhos hosts. After a salty start the guests try and figure out what the main is: bachalhau à bras. Barbara has an outfit change and presents her dessert: natas do céu which is just a fancy way of saying custard.

James Currie's menu includes an appetizer of crab puffs, the main course is fish and for dessert, chocolate mousse is served. The night ends on a melodic note with a little serenade from James and his guitar.

Katie Pitt is the host. She has felt confident right from the start of the week about winning, even more so after the first three parties. What may be a problem is if she meets her guests' expectation by being drunk while she cooks.

Myron Simic's menu consists of grapetini as the welcome drink, stuffed peppers as the appetizer, chicken with a pomegranate glaze as the main course, and cheesecake fantasy explosion as the dessert.

The five hosts are: Brad Koziey, a self-professed geek; Brit Steve Lydon, dietitian Kate Park, registered nurse Kelly Rossignol, who wants to drink at least $1,000 of booze this week if she doesn't win; and housewife Lisa Vrban.

Kelly Rossignol is hosting. Her menu consists of mimosas as the welcome drink, a mixed salad with homemade bread as the appetizer, beef tenderloin as the main, and cherry chocolate cheesecake with a black forest shooter as the dessert.

Kate Park's menu consists of dirty blonde triple threats as the welcome drink, hippy dippy salad as the appetizer, red wine braised rabbit with Parisienne gnocchi and caramel pots de crème with apple cider sponge cake.

Brad Koziey's guests don't know what to expect in terms of food, as Brad has been running under the radar. However, as although he is a self-professed geek, he is also seen as being boring, and thus they are expecting a low keyed evening.

Lisa Vrban is the final host for the week. As Lisa portrays herself as the pampered housewife/trophy wife, her guests will be surprised if Lisa's hosting and her attention to detail in the presentation is not spot on.

The hosts are acro-dancer Erica Carinci, Luigi Lou Desantis, who identifies more as Canadian than Italian, Lulu Lubuglio, a divorcée who has given up on relationships; housewife Mirella Martino, aand music producer Lazzaro Cristiano Pisu

Erica Carinci hosts. Her menu consists of spiked lemonade as the welcome drink, pasta e fagioli as the appetizer, short ribs with tagliatelle, and chocolate hazelnut ravioli with chocolate mousse as the dessert.

It's mid-week and five Italians are battling it out in their kitchens in a week long food fight. Keeping it authentic in the kitchen is loudmouth music producer Lazzaro Pisu.

Lulu Lubuglio hosts. Lulu is certain she'll win as all the love that she no longer gives to a man she gives to her food. However, she doesn't show that love as although she considers herself a warm person, her guests believe she is somber.

Luigi Lou Desantis hosts. His menu consists of thin crust pizza as the pre-dinner snack, orecchiette with sausage and rapini as the appetizer, rosemary crusted roast pork as the main, and strawberry crostata with honey vanilla gelato.

The five contestants for this week are: gardening grandma Marise Muir, handsome menswear designer Christopher Bates, perky sales manager Heather Grand, opinionated filmmaker Drama En Sabah, and animal loving comedian Elaine Dandy.

Overconfident Christopher Bates is the host. His menu consists of prosecco as the welcome drink, glitterati gnocchi as the appetizer, lamb meatballs with eggplant parmagiana as the main, and blissful orange cheesecake as the dessert.

The week so far has been hell for tonight's host, Drama En Sabah, who has shown his disdain for his three female competitors. Being a person who doesn't like people in his personal space will make the night even more uncomfortable for him.

Elaine Dandy's French menu consists of mesclun with baked chevre as the appetizer, Chateaubriand with Bearnaise sauce as the main course, and crème brûlée with orange liqueur for dessert.

Party girl Heather Garand is the final host for the week. Her 911 from setting off the fire alarm is indirectly related to the planned evening's entertainment, which has the potential to alienate 40% of the population.

The five hosts are: Jenny Gladish, a vegetarian, Brent Henderson, who will eat anything and who was once known as the microwave king; Manon Marquis, Tracie Thompson, a cat person and Andrew Whitney.

Andrew Whitney's the next to host the dinner party. Andrew knows he comes across as pretentious to his guests, which is a correct assumption. Their view is strengthened by reading the menu and its use of flowery restaurant styled language.

Crazy cat lady Tracie Thompson hosts. A comment by Manon at the table, Andrew's hypercriticism, Tracie's excessive alcohol consumption, and knowing that cats have been all over the house have the potential to take over the night.

Jenny Gladish is next on the list to host. Much like Andrew, Jenny knows that she can come off as judgmental and preachy, although she figures her attitudes are based on health, rather than Andrew's which are more on self-importance.

Basic-minded Brent Henderson is the final host. His plan of attack all week has been to remain neutral and friendly. Because Brent has not criticized anything he's consumed all week, his guests are not expecting his meal to be complex.

The five hosts are: hospitality employee Nav Dhillon, waste management employee Alessandro Limongelli, plumber Rachel Schatz, cable guy Syd Spencer, a chatterbox of a hippie; and manager Robin Yeager, a self-professed prima donna.

Nav Dhillon is the next to host. His South Asian-Canadian fusion menu consists of salmon pakoras as the appetizer, tandoori chicken with mac and cheese as the main course, and kheer with chocolate dipped strawberries as the dessert.

Alessandro Limongelli's menu consists of Prosecco with raspberry liqueur as a welcome drink, prosciutto, arugula and cambozola pizzettas with tomato bocconcini towers as the appetizer, lamb shanks with gnocchi and cappuccino millefoglie.

Rachel Schatz is next on the list to host the dinner party. She takes a risk by serving the second Italian themed meal of the week, she not being Italian, while one of her guests is to an extreme.

Pretentious Robin Yeager hosts. A-type Robin has no doubt she will win the week, although she'll have to overcome the major obstacle of her guests believing that she believes wrongly that she's superior if she has any chance of winning.

The hosts are: bartender Greg Moar, community engagement coordinator Sherwin Modeste, Jamie Chojnacki, financial services representative Atavia Surtees, and executive assistant Effie Tsergas, an extrovert who isn't easily embarrassed.

Atavia Surtees is the next to host. She believes she has what it takes to win as she, recently married, believes a way to a man's heart is through his stomach, and she has the hardware on her finger to prove that she has it.

Sherwin Modeste is the host of the dinner party. This night's meal will be the second in a row on a Caribbean theme, Sherwin who is out to prove that between the two West Indians, he is the true Queen of the Caribbean.

Effie Tsergas's menu consists of bourbon shots, Greek meatballs wrapped in hickory-smoked bacon as the appetizer, pea-meal bacon stuffed pork tenderloin wrapped in strip bacon and bacon grease fried donuts for dessert.

Pretentious pretty boy Greg Moar hosts. Although Greg believes he just has to show up to win the week, he has an uphill climb as he is unaware that the other four consider him boring and square, and not in a good way.

The five hosts are: Krista Lee Hynes, who loves cabaret; landscaper David A. Lush, IT instructor Bev Pike, nursing student Rebecca Puddester, and real estate agent John Bernard Riche, who tells it like it is.

Bev Pike is the next to host the dinner party. Her menu consists of blue breezes as the welcome drink, curried crab cakes as the appetizer, prime rib as the main course, and Newfoundland berry threesome as the dessert.

David A. Lush's menu consists of beer as the welcome drink, cod tongues as the appetizer, fillet mignon as the main course, and sticky toffee pudding for dessert.

Rebecca Puddester's menu consists of traditional Newfoundland slush as a welcome drink, orange and ginger butternut squash soup as an appetizer, stuffed pork tenderloin and chocolate and coffee liqueur torte (which in reality is a trifle).

John Bernard Riche's menu consists of Republic of Newfoundland soups - asparagus and leek soup (green), cod chowder (white) and seafood bisque (pink) - as an appetizer, grilled lamb as the main, and chocolate mud cake as the dessert.

The five hosts are: physical education teacher Dave Goode, Alicja Kachnicz, bus driver Avni Lushaku Hyseini, hair and makeup artist Nidhi Mahajan, who has toned down her partying ways since recently getting married

Ruth Simpson is the next to host. Reading her menu, her guests generally believe that Ruth is serving a safe meal. The one thing Ruth vows not to serve is hair on a plate like Alicja did last night.

Nidhi Mahajan hosts. Nidhi's South Asian menu consists of tandoori chicken sliders as the appetizer, deep fried chili chicken as the main course, and gulab jamun in cardamom sauce and vanilla bean ice cream for dessert.

Avni Lushaku Hyseini is the next on the list to host. Avni has been hypercritical all week - although he considers it solely as having high standards and thus being "right" - and as such it may be payback time from his guests tonight.

Dave Goode is the final host. His menu consists of cranberry spritzers as the welcome drink, shrimp cocktail as the appetizer, filet mignon as the main course, and peach and strawberry crumble with vanilla ice cream as the dessert.

The hosts are: government employee Joshua Abrams, health care worker Nicole Ducharme, housewife Julie Goldblatt, training coordinator Jill Hache, and cemetery director John Villeneuve.

Jill Hache's menu consists of arugula salad and gazpacho as the appetizer, wild mushroom capellini with sage and pecan encrusted chicken as the main course, and smores in a glass as the dessert.

Joshua Abrams is the host. Joshua's low on carbs menu consists of pecan-crusted halibut with quinoa risotto as the appetizer, red wine braised beef with beer bread as the main course, and dark chocolate nut butter cake for dessert.

John Villeneuve is the next on the list to host the dinner party. John's strategy of kindness seems to be working, but it still has yet to be seen if he can parlay that good faith into a winning night.

Nicole Ducharme's menu consists of sangria as the welcome drink, stuffed olives and feta with baguettes as the appetizer, brie and apple stuffed chicken breast as the main course, and mock apple pie with berry sorbet as the dessert.

The five hosts are: avid traveler Yasmin Islam, entertainer Jahte Le, who believes he's living the dream by what he does as a job; Brenda Martin, an avid sidewalk scavenger; mother Martha O'Neill, and banker Ramon Octavio Suarez Cadena.

The second to host is Jahte Le. His menu consists of Jahtinis as the welcome drink, bacon wrapped scallops, deviled eggs and a summer salad as an appetizer, stewed chicken and roast beef with two potato sides and cheesecake as the dessert.

Ramon Octavio Suarez Cadena admits that he's not the best cook. His end of party surprise for Jahte may result in some hard feelings, but Brenda, who has fallen in love with Ramon, may propel him to a win on her love alone.

Yasmin Islam issues the fourth dress code of the week in as many days, this time being favorite travel destination, with Yasmin herself being the flight attendant whisking them away on vacation.

Martha O'Neill's menu consists of watermelon and arugula salad with haloumi and flatbread as the appetizer, roast chicken as the main course, and key lime pie and chocolate-drizzled cheesecake strawberries as the dessert.

The five hosts are: Karen Bishop, a self-professed cougar; correctional officer Judy Marlow, entrepreneur George Mcpherson,, seamster Domenic Pisano, and innkeeper Maria Toye, whose friends consider her a little too wild.

The second to host a dinner party is Maria Toye. Her menu consists of scallops as the appetizer, honey-mustard glazed salmon as the main course, and crêpes with sautéed fruit as the dessert.

George Mcpherson is the next host of the dinner party. Conceited George has no doubt in his mind that he will win the week, especially since the three women have been fawning over him thus far.

Judy Marlow is the next on the list to host. Judy issues the second dress code of the week, pretty-in-pink. For who the first time is always the best, Judy decides not to practice preparing her meal, instead winging it on the spot.

Domenic Pisano is the final host of the week. Domenic believes he will win the week hands down, not realizing that he has an uphill climb with some of his guests who believe he is arrogant and pretentious.

The five hosts are: mechanic Larry Boccioletti, financial advisor Vicky Celestini, business owner Minesh Dattani, Marie Renaud, a swinging single and trucking company employee Tricia Warren.

Tricia Warren's New Orleans menu consists of sazeracs as the welcome drink, spicy alligator bites and chicken and Andouille sausage gumbo as the appetizer, jambalaya as the main course, and bananas foster as the dessert.

Minesh Dattani is the next host of the dinner party. Pretentious Minesh has no doubt in his mind that he will win the week, especially since he has the kitchen with double all the bells and whistles to be able to do it.

Vicky Celestini is the next on the list to host the dinner party. Vicky has been the most openly critical of the week, so she may get what she has been dishing out in return tonight.

Larry Boccioletti, better known as Butch, is the final host of the week. Butch, the old timer of the group, wants to show that experience counts for a lot, although he does admit that he has been nervous about hosting all week.

The five hosts are: HR instructor Penny Cavener, employment outreach specialist Madalena Longo, Marco Stabellini, who believes he can whip anybody's ass; Melissa Tiikanen, who likes to drop the f-bomb and electrician Glen Varvaro.

The second to host is Melissa Tiikanen, whose party theme is first and foremost in her mind: Halloween. She expects all her guests to come in costume, and if they don't, she will find them a costume, which they will probably not like.

Madalena Longo is the next host of the dinner party. Everyone believes Maddy's strategy is to be the cutesy pretty harmless one of the group, perhaps not realizing that the strategy, if it is one, is the way she naturally is.

Penny Cavener's French menu consists of mojtos as the welcome drink, pear and candied pecan salad with gruyère gougères as the appetizer, beef bourguignon as the main course, and crème brûlée for dessert.

Marco Stabellin realizes he has an uphill battle to win as he has been the most hypercritical all week - thinking everything being under-seasoned, and complaining about store bought cured meat ricotta, both which he makes himself.

The hosts are: Rudy El Maghariki, an out and proud Lebanese; salesman Jason Furlano, Kelly Henderson, who is nicknamed Hendo; Kelly MacKay, who will admit to being forty-six (ahem) and firefighter Stephanie Wellinger.

The second to host a dinner party is Rudy El Maghariki. His "Arabian nights" party menu consists of arak shooters, spinach fatayer as the appetizer, kibbeh with laban as the main course, and Arabic custard as the dessert.

Jason Furlano hosts. His "under the sea" party menu consists of Baja fish tacos as the appetizer, lobster boil as the main course, and deep sea blueberry parfait for dessert.

Kelly Henderson is the next on the list to host the dinner party. She states that all the parties she throws are theme parties because she likes putting her guests in unusual and often uncomfortable situations.

Kelly MacKay is the final host of the week. As the oldest of the group, Kelly admits that aging has its many drawbacks, but theme dinner party hosting experience is not one of them.
