But Matt Preston was noticeably missing - much to Wippa's disappointment - because Wippa said Matt would be his pick if he had to take a Masterchef judge on a date. A camping date to be specific.

"You’d never get cold," Wippa told Yahoo 7 Entertainment after the event. "You know when they say when you’re at risk of hypothermia when you’re camping so two people have to strip down to their underwear, and you all get in the same sleeping bag. If you were camping with Matt Preston you’d never suffer from hypothermia. He’s a wild bear."

Can you feel the bromance?

To celebrate season eight of Masterchef Fitsy and Wippa held a friendly competition to see who could serve up the best two course meal at Sydney's Hotel Centennial.

Wippa, who is currently kicking goals on his 5:2 diet, won the clash with his grilled lamb rack, crushed royal blues, roasted heirloom carrots and provençal jus.

The radio legend admitted his winning tactic included showering his guests with booze.

"Everyone loves Mojitos and with the amount of sugar in those things gets people excited," he said.

"I wanted my crowd to roar against Fitsy’s team."

Wippa impressed other celeb judges like Ita Buttrose and Sandra Sully - even though he originally wanted to serve two scoops of homebrand vanilla ice-cream for his grand finale.

“I’m a very basic man,” he said. “For dessert I always want two scoops of vanilla ice-cream from the kids menu.”

He eventually won the show after his advisers told him to go for Vanilla panna cotta with poached rhubarb & strawberries instead.

Delish!
