Well, it has come down to the final two, Adrienne and Joe Flamm. I saw some of the marathon that ran today and had forgotten that nearly all the chefs had emotional breakdowns when Flamm was voted out. So all the chefs are probably rooting for him. He seems like a great guy. I also […]
Top Chef: A Little Place Called Aspen
Well, it’s down to Mustache Joe, Joesph Flamm and Adrienne Cheatham. Here is what it looks like overall. Mustache Joe has the most wins, but he’s been inconsistent in the last half of the season. He has recently gotten his groove back and appears to be the front runner. Joeseph Flamm flamed out and was […]
Top Chef: Nut Allergy
Y’all, I am still not over Christopher leaving last week. Or Moustache Joe winning. Or Carrie being on the bottom with Christopher. I need a Carrie win to make up for all of this. And tonight we go down to three. According to the episode guide, “The Voltaggio Brothers reunite on Top Chef for the […]
Top Chef: Cooking High
We are down to the final four. I did not realize the LCK winner would come back tonight. If I had, I would have made more of an effort to watch the last few episodes. I am swamped with recaps right now. That is why I keep talking about whether or not to drop a […]
Top Chef: Red Rum And Then Some
Carrie gets the phone call home. Her dad has some dementia stuff going on. She is the front-runner in my estimation so surely she not going home tonight. The challenge tonight happens at the Stanley Hotel which was the inspiration for The Shining. The quickfire is to make a dessert that represents their worst nightmare. […]
Top Chef: Bronco Brouhaha
I’ve noticed lately that the shows I like the most get the least amount comments and the show I like the least get the most. It seems like the trend is that being outraged my something is more proactive than enjoying something. That is precisely the reason shows like the housewives get such high ratings. […]
Top Chef: Restaurant Wars
I learned from the TV listing that Restaurant Wars will be men versus women. Do we even need to watch? Clearly women simply can’t work together. We learned that last week when Tanya went home. We were pretty evenly divided over whether Tanya or Claudette should have gone but when Tanya was a bit snippy […]
Top Chef: Olympic Dreams
First of all, in case you missed it, Chef Fatima Ali has cancer and surgery this week to remove a tumor from her shoulder. I haven’t been able to find any updates since the surgery. In better news, Bruce’s wife had a baby boy. Padma, and past Top Chef winner, Brooke, arrive at the Top […]
Top Chef: Now That’s A Lot Of Schnitzel!
It’s time for the gang to get themselves prepared for another challenging day. It seems no one wants to leave their bed after the camping expedition. They are all worn out from the high altitude. Lee Anne is sick and going to the hospital to make sure the baby is doing okay, she’s sitting out […]
Top Chef: This Is Not Glamping
When my DVR begins this program under extreme duress from everything else I asked it to tape tonight, the remaining chefs walk in to discover they have arrived in the last chance kitchen. That is because the winner of tonight’s challenge will be immediately allowed back in the competition. Kuame is cut. Tom can’t decide […]
Top Chef: Little Tools, Big Challenge
Because I can’t remember ANYTHING anymore, every time Top Chef shows up on my list of things to recap, I’m surprised and and happy every week. I’m so excited to get to this episode and see what female chef goes home tonight! Mustache Joe is high off of his win after making wings last week. […]
Top Chef: Keep On Truckin’
Every day, I forget what day it is and what I have to recap that night. On housewives nights I have to sort of pull myself together and get on with it, but when it is Top Chef, I look forward to the show all day. I guess that means Top Chef is my favorite […]
Top Chef: Smile And Say Mise
I’m a bit behind because I just woke up from a thirteen hour nap. I am trying to sleep off this stupid nagging cold that continues to linger. So far it is not working. I think I will recap this and sleep a bit more. Perhaps the cold is just an excuse for sleeping under […]
Top Chef: It’ll Take More Than Pot Luck
It’s time for a new season of Top Chef! This season we are in Colorado. All of the chefs are either west coasters or yankees, so I have no hometown chef to pull for. There is someone named Brother Luck that might be interesting. Instead of introducing everyone upfront, this seasons starts with a quickfire. […]
