When Padma spoke up about that, I thought for SURE he was going. So annoying -- he cooks completely with his head. Carlos and the other cook with heart as well as technique.

I thought it was really interesting that both Shirley and Nina seemed to be rooting for Nicholas to make it over Carlos. He seems like such an ass, but there was a lot of shade throwing about Carlos' cooking. I was disappointed.
I love the Shirley/Emeril love fest that broke out this season. He was crying when she won. So cute!

Shirley going on about Carlos only doing Mexican = @@.

Right? Like she and Nina don't use their background and culture to influence their cooking? Get over yourself, lady.
Still, I was very happy that they both made the finale and I'm all in for a Nina win.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Brenda, awesome!!
I hope Carlos comes back from Last Chance Kitchen and beats Nick's ass. At least Padma agrees with me - she seemed genuinely angry at Nick for his lack of salt and genuinely sad about telling Carlos to pack his knives.

Brenda, that's amazing. I would love to go to his restaurant and eat that seafood tamale. It looked delicious.
I'm pretty sure they are just keeping Nick around because he brings the drama. Feh.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm really afraid they keep putting him through because subconsciously he looks more like a top chef. I can't decide if I'd prefer producer drama shenanigans or internalized racism/sexism....

Unfortunately, I suspect producer shenanigans are at least partially driven by internalized racism.

True, true.
