Oh I just remembered some Top Chef related gossip. So Timothy Dean, booted early this season, has a restaurant in Bmore. He's been spotted (by my friend once and once by my Bob) driving around in a car with the license plate "Top Chef." wah wah
And he was spotted going into the drivethrough at the McDonalds around the corner from our house.
I'm all about Kendal. She's stunning and funny in her countrified way.
I love Kendal. And, she's from Northport! Which is adjacent to Tuscaloosa. Which is the home of The Univ. of Alabama!! Roll Tide!!
Judges got it right on PR.
In both cases, too. Sad to see Micheal leave.
Yeah. Love the winning look so much, though!
As soon as Anamaria started in on the "calorie restricted diet", I knew she was going home.
YES. OMG. ...and yet I wonder, much as she looked heinously skinny and kinda awful, if really the industry would actually hire her.
I didn't realize the other girl was almost as tall as the "giant"! Huh...
Yeah. Love the winning look so much, though!
Me too!! I'd wear the hell out of it. I kind of love MONDO!
Loved Mondo's look. Was expecting Valerie to go not Michael D.
Also - TC: watched last night. I was watching it and talking to a friend who had seen it the night before: they showed warring clips of Angelo and Ed talking about how each was the other's biggest competition and I said, "Wouldn't be amusing if Kevin won." She was stoic and did not give anything away.
I was happy that Ed wound up with Ilan as his sous chef.
And couldn't believe that Ed was acting like Angelo was malingering when he actually needed the doctor's okay in order to cook.
I was happy that Ed wound up with Ilan as his sous chef.
After all his talk about "I don't care that I have immunity, I want to WIN" the night before, I was really surprised he just assigned the dessert to Ilan with no supervision at all. At least Angelo was giving Hung instructions on what to prep - he wasn't letting him plan the menu!
And not supervising Ilan is never a wise move: he could have wound up with chocolate covered chicken livers!
