The Lanarkshire chef who showcased his culinary skills on MasterChef: The Professionals has told how he “absolutely loved” the experience of cooking for expert judges on the prestigious TV programme.
William Rocks, who is originally from Coatbridge, appeared in the first week of the current series, progressing from his heat and reaching the quarter-finals.
Although he was then eliminated following a brunch-themed invention test round, he says he gained valuable advice from the feedback of top chefs Marcus Wareing and Anna Haugh and will be using their suggestions to help develop future dishes.
