42 year old Christian charity project worker, David Martin, is the third host to take the baton in Come Dine With Me Plymouth
Devoted to family and work, David doesn't have much time for socialising but he's hoping years of restaurant management experience will come into their own on the night.
After last night's attack from Sharron, which left him weeping in the taxi, David's opening his doors with a big heart. And it looks like he's about to turn his nemesis into an ally. After two nights of bullying David, Sharron has changed her tune on her rival's prowess. "I always thought his menu could be the one," she fawns.
And it might well be: there are groans of delight over David's sauce at the starter and the main is so good, even Nat can't fault it. The domestic goddesses have underestimated their humble host and it could cost them.
As the food disappears, David's confidence gets a boost. He even tries his hand at a bit of banter, handing his griping guests wooden spoons because they're so good at stirring. Oh David you scamp. If only he hadn't used shop bought pastry cases.
David got the ladies wanting more with his mushrooms in garlic white wine sauce on ciabatta recipe.
Cooked to perfection, David's spiced lamb shank with creamed potatoes was a hit with his grousing guests.
Unfortunately we can't bring you David's recipe but try this lamb shank recipe from Marcus Wareing.
And to round it off, a classically indulgent chocolate tart with clotted cream.
Unfortunately we can't bring you David's dessert recipe but try this chocolate and whiskey tart recipe.
