There was one cook remaining in the
Hell's Kitchen kitchen on Tuesday's finale: Christina, 25, who won
Gordon Ramsay's Fox show by beating out finalist Petrozza in a challenge that involved serving 50 diners.
"I am, like, so happy on 10 different levels," the St. Louis native said after winning. "I can't even explain it."
Christina will now become the executive chef of Ramsay's newest restaurant, London, in West Hollywood, a prize worth $250,000.
"It's almost like a fairy tale, you know?" Christina added, while her mom cried. "I guess it really does happen to people, even goobers like me."
