Rise and shine! Pro chef Saul Montiel and home cook Onika are swapping recipes and hitting the kitchen to start the day off right with a breakfast sandwich. We provided Onika with all the ingredients necessary to make chef Saul’s over-the-top $107 sammy, sending only $11 worth of materials back the other direction. Could our home cook rise to the challenge or did chef Saul outshine his budget and deliver a winner with his "Croque Montiel?"

    I feel like Saul had a backup plan to become a comedian if he even failed to become a chef.
  • @krazykravingsph
    Is it just me who is extremely happy that they can now taste each other's food?
  • @CristinaC333
    I love chef Saul, he’s so humble. Love when he said he came to this country with hope and dreams. His personality is amazing!
  • @kunoichichica
    Saul and Onika are my new favorite pairing. Saul dropping the fork mic after tasting his and Onika's dishes was a highlight for me. Also, their little explosion fist bump?! ADORABLE. I will never NOT love Onika personifying her ingredients as well because you know that's where the love comes in, when you talking to your food lol
  • @NoSweet4
    Saul's and Onika's energy combined at the end made me smile so wide
  • @SuvasisRout004
    I love Saul's energy. And on top of it his accent is just... Perfect.
  • @davidroeder5548
    Saul: “This breakfast sandwich WAS going to be delicious but… you know…” Man is hilarious 💀😂
  • @ashulee92
    Onika's narration of the food is seriously amazing. Lol she is so funny
  • @mon6745
    Saul cutting the edges off the bread off like he does for his kids 🥺🥺🥺
  • @ldr9918
    Chef Saul KILLED this!! Shakshuka eggs on a croque madame with candied bacon? and that coffee dessert! His and Onika’s presence and charisma in the kitchen made me love this episode so much, can’t wait to see more of them!
  • @mstc5390
    I just love Onika's energy, she had me smiling from start to finish
  • Omg this was so cute. This is literally favorite chef. Everyone is nice. BUT he's so genuinely down to earth!!!!! Love it!
  • @Inday_Yawa
    "What's better than chees? More cheese!" and "It's never too early." are the words I will start to live by from now on.
  • Oh my Saul... 'I came to this country with two things... Hope and Dreams. Here I am making videos.' Go chef!!! 👏🏽
  • @lennyngrado6365
    Saul was given barely two slices of bread and some cheese and he came up with an amazing sandwich AND a dessert.
  • @Lala_Fae
    As a brit, who has never had the experience of proper authentic Mexican cuisine, this chef.... I need to eat your food ASAP. Wowwww
  • @wehcd
    Saul making that coffee granita was the most unexpected thing. Props to him for trying to whip that half and half
  • @yalikejas3232
    “you see them dancing? they’re dancing because they’re happy” OMG
  • I loved this! I liked that Saul actually used the ingredients he got instead of omitting/replacing ingredients for "better" alternatives like other chefs have done.
  • These two would be the bomb cooking show! I think their personalities would Work great together. I enjoyed watching this❤️
