After last week’s episode there was no way this week’s could be better. I was just hoping it wouldn’t drop off too much. We’re really coming into the home stretch here and now that Bev’s no longer around for everyone to kick maybe there’ll be some new drama. Of course since the opening scene wasContinue reading “Top Chef Episode 12 – Block Party”

Top Chef Episode 7 – Double Down
Last night’s episode was one of the best of the season, but if you’ve been following along you know that’s not a high bar to clear. This is two weeks in a row where the quickfire challenge seemed to really bring out the creativity of the chefs. I loved the elimination challenge too. Finally oneContinue reading “Top Chef Episode 7 – Double Down”
Top Chef Episode 6 – Can we move the show to a Post Office?
Because these guys look like they’re just mailing it in. I’ve been annoyed (really, we couldn’t tell!) with the challenges but more and more I’m thinking it doesn’t matter what the challenges are. These guys can’t even master simple team ones where they all work together on putting out meals. Isn’t that what they normallyContinue reading “Top Chef Episode 6 – Can we move the show to a Post Office?”
Top Chef Episode 5 – Come on, let’s get going here
So far I’ve been pretty unimpressed with the season. The challenges haven’t been all that exciting and the chefs aren’t dazzling very much. Not to mention there’s barely any drama among them. These guys are so blah the show can’t even edit in good drama to make it seem like there’s tension. We really haven’tContinue reading “Top Chef Episode 5 – Come on, let’s get going here”
Top Chef – prelims pt. 2
Well at least that’s over with. I think the third group got shafted a bit. Each of the other groups basically had an ingredient challenge while these chefs had a time element added. Instead of having the same time as everyone else, some had more, some had less. This little twist really looked like itContinue reading “Top Chef – prelims pt. 2”
Top Chef is Back!
I’m a huge fan of Top Chef and am always excited for the start of new seasons. It’s come a long way since the beginning and the quality of contestants has just gotten better and better. Personally I think the Vegas one had the toughest cast of chefs. I’m not including the All-Star one sinceContinue reading “Top Chef is Back!”
