Who are the finalists and who will win?
Looking in detail the contestants vying to obtain the title of winner of MasterChef 13Antonio Mazzola is what he has always shown to be a cut above the others for skill, technique, order, creativity. He seems the most ready to embark on a career in the restaurant world. 28 years old, married and with a daughter, he is Sicilian, but lives in Munich. He hopes to be able to return to his Palermo to open a restaurant.
Opponents should not be underestimated. Eleonora Riso is 27 years old, from Livorno and works as a waitress in Florence. She is a whimsical girl, her dishes are the mirror of her artistic streak and she has shown that she knows how to overcome her limits. Then, there is Michela Morelli. The personal trainer from Appiano Sulla Strada del Vino, in the province of Bolzano, is 45 years old, married and has three children.
She is a determined woman and does not lose concentration in moments of pressure. Indeed, perhaps that is precisely where he is able to give his best. In the end, Sara Bellinzona. The youngest of the finalists – she is 24 years old – comes from Montalto Pavese, in the province of Pavia and is an employee. The passion for cooking highlighted some insecurities, but it never subsided and managed to defend the coveted apron even in the most difficult situations.
It is difficult to predict who will win. On paper, Antonio seems to have a few more chances, but the final always hides many pitfalls. Will he triumph or are unexpected surprises on the way?
