Beet ice cream was the most bizarre one, mostly because of the color as well as what I imagine the taste to have been.
I think Batali had that beat, not necessarily for looks, with some "sundae" concoction he did that had the judges telling him just how outrageously awful it was. I think Steingarten used the words "I want to throw this on the floor and stamp on it" or close to it, but I can't remember what it was. It sounded hideous, so I may have blocked it. One of those food ideas that is nightmare fuel.
OMG the uni parfait. Who knew it was possible to cram so much WRONG into one dish?
That was the shrimp parfait that they featured on the behind-the-scenes ep. Loved the reaction of the judges, especially the brave woman who took a big bite and then immediately looked like she wanted to spit it out.
Ah, Steingarten. My oh-so-grumpy Seekrit TV boyfriend.
Before you laugh, consider: dude has a salamander oven in his kitchen.
Sue, were you out carousing again last night?
Video game launch party, open bar, only soup for supper.
Congrats to the Wolframs!
And I'm so glad you are feeling better, Jen.
Kalshane! Girl! Apartment!
See girl run in terror from dirty bachelor pad.
Though it's actually not too bad, I just really want to get the bathroom cleaned and the vacuum run at the very least.
But I made the drive down to her place last weekend (it's an hour and a half away) for our date, so she's returning the favor this weekend.
Oh, sarameg, so true. It's like referring to "East Coast" cuisine. I am still trying to train the phrase "Tex-Mex" out of Bob.

I'll use the phrase. Usually perjoratively, referencing gloppy tomato-y unspicy chili with beans and ground beef. Or really, anything spicy at Texas Raodhouse.....
To me, Tex Mex is the "Mexican" food at Chili's.

Good date, I'm assuming.
