We have a winner. The finale for Next Level Chef Season 5 has finally aired, revealing who of the Top 3 contestants — Darian Bryan, Connor Caine, and Nicole “Cole” Lawson — took home the top honors … and received a much-coveted mentorship with coaches Gordon Ramsay, Nyesha Arrington, and Richard Blais. Warning: The following post contains spoilers for Next Level Chef Season 5’s finale.

All three finalists put on a remarkable showcase of dishes across the three kitchens, but only one could be the season’s champion. And it turned out that, for the trio of judges, Darian told the best story and truly reached the next level with his performance throughout the season.
