Yes, Chef! Season 1 Episode 3 featured an unexpected event, which was quite a shock for participating chefs. For the challenge, when everyone was getting their ingredients from the kitchen, one of the cheftestants, Chef Katsuji Tanabe, grabbed all the eggs.

Most of all, the contestants needed eggs to prepare their dishes. However, when they asked him to give them eggs, Cheg Katsuji refused. Fans of the show shared their reactions after witnessing how he hoarded every egg, and none of his fellow chefs could have eggs.

Fans took to the social media platform X and shared their thoughts on the situation where Chef Katsuji hoarded all the eggs in episode 3.

A fan wrote on X:

"It was a battle of the eggs tonight on "Yes, Chef!" Lol!! Chef Katsuji hide the eggs from the Blue Team this week and all hell broke loose! #YesChef."

Another person reacted to Katsuji hoarding all the eggs:

"Really Katsuji? All the eggs? #YesChef."

A netizen wrote about Chef Katsuji's behavior in the third episode:

"Katsuji grabbed all the eggs and refuses to share #YesChef @nbc."

A person wrote on X:

"Katsuji is something else... Not giving up any of these eggs... #YesChef."

A netizen commented:

"Katsuji hoarded eggs and wouldn't share. Katsuji did not help any of the other chefs. Katsuji did not ask for help. #YesChef @nbc."

One more fan wrote on the platform:

"God I despise katsuji . I cant wait for him to leave #yeschef."

A person commented about Katsuji's behavior in the cooking competition:

"#YesChef if Katsuji was actually a good Chef he wouldn't have to stoop to these childish games/tricks to make it further in the show. He didn't do well on Too Chef against the best Chefs…conclusion he must be a very low to mediocre Chef."

A fan wrote about Chef Katsuji:

"Someone should just cook Katsuji in that kitchen, Who even hoards all the eggs? #yeschef."

Yes, Chef! Episode 3: Chef Katsuji grabs all the eggs, which results in chaos among fellow cheftestants

Yes, Chef! Episode 3 featured participants divided into two teams. There were Golden Boxes that each of the cheftestants would be assigned. With different labels stating 1 to 5 levels of difficulty, each box had a technique that participants would be executing.

Soon, as the task began, cheftestants went to the kitchen to get their required ingredients. One of them, Chef Katsuji, grabbed all the eggs from the pantry before anyone else could get their hands on them.

Witnessing Katsuji hoarding the eggs, one of the judges, Martha Stewart, reacted:

"Well, he's doing spherification. But what do you make out of all those eggs?"

Fellow judge José Andrés said:

"Today is the day we're going to see if he got an amazing chef in him."

As Chef Katsuji grabbed all the eggs, soon everyone noticed. Since most of the chefs required eggs to prepare their dishes, they were confused about what they should do.

One of the Yes, Chef! Participants, Emily Brubaker, asked Katsuji if she could have some eggs, which he immediately refused.

"What do you mean no?" she asked.

However, Chef Katsuji's answer didn't change. She said it was "selfish" of him to have all 36 eggs to himself. Fellow cheftestants also reacted to this behavior from Chef Katsuji.
