For two weeks, the four candidates still in the running in The Best Pastry Chef on M6 face each other in the semi-finals. Benjamin, Tsiory, Timothée and José must win two events to hope to earn their ticket for the final which will take place next week. This Thursday, January 2, the last week of selections began with the creative test in which amateur pastry chefs had to reproduce a snow globe in XXL format. But In the middle of the ordeal, José felt unwell and showed signs of fatigue.
José (The Best Pastry Chef 2024) explains to us what causes his discomfort in the episode of this Thursday, January 2
“I’m not feeling well, I’m having trouble breathing but I’m still going to finish my cake”said the dean, in bad shape. A few minutes later, after having finished his snow globe, he decided to leave the tent and not attend the tasting of Cyril Lignac and Mercotte. Pour Tele-Leisurehe agreed to come back to this misadventure. “It’s simply due to my medical history, I sometimes have abdominal attacks because I have been tampered with a lot inside”explains the one who survived four cancers. And to specify: “I didn't expect it to take me there. I got a little confused in my choices to fill my suitcase and I intentionally or involuntarily forgot to put on my abdominal support belt, so I missed it a little to relieve my pain. But from the moment I was able to get one, things picked up again. It's physical, it wasn't an emotional breakdown.”.
-José had to be absent from the filming of Best pastry chef 2024 : “I needed a few good hours of rest.”
Despite the pain, José managed to be patient, taking the time to finish his preparation. “I held on despite myself until the end of the ordeal, I was writhing a little in pain but anyway, I said to myself: 'You'll get there, take it'. I took out what I could and apparently it wasn't that bad. I don't regret anything, it will teach me to put what I need in my suitcase”quips the candidate, who was then seen resting in the Orangery. “I needed a few good hours of rest. And I especially needed this belt which arrived providentially, we managed to find my size and exactly the material I had at home. From the moment I put it on, obviously with the abdominal restraint, it gave me almost instant relief.“, reassures the amateur pastry chef. The latter specifies that it was not necessary to call a doctor or the fire brigade. “I have the medical experience that means I know what to do to alleviate the problem. I know what I have and how to take care of it“he emphasizes. After this necessary break, the semi-finalist was able to resume the competition with his comrades.
