"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I love how much shit Wolfgang Puck talks. His comment about puree and baby food nearly choked me.

I cannot stand Mike. I want to kick him in the testicles.

Sing it!

Sadly, he got good marks on his food. Dammit. I think Jen is going to win it though. I'm already rooting for her since her mentor is Eric Ripert.

Wolfgang Puck is awesome- can we keep him? I hate, hate, hate Mike. Really? You can't wrap your head around a lady beating you at shucking clams? Life will be tough for you.

SEITAN REALLY?

Because books.

Yeah, he's a big UGH.

Wolfgang is wonderful.

And the brothers should be interesting.

Well, I was mostly right, but I didn't see the winner coming.

I wanted halibut lady to win so to rub Michael's nose in the fact that a GIRL BEAT HIM OMG.

The french dude's red ascot thing is strange and off-putting to me. Also, the weird chick that did the scallop-shrimp-overcomplicated-vice thing sounds EXACTLY like Mel from Flight of the Conchords.

Now to watch the Masters.

Masters is surprising me. Also making me really, really hungry.

I want that mole. Now.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Also, the weird chick that did the scallop-shrimp-overcomplicated-vice thing sounds EXACTLY like Mel from Flight of the Conchords.

Bwahaha! So true.

WOO HOO! BAYLESS!!!!!

I am now desperately sad that I am not eating mole right fucking now.

YAY!!! Rick Bayless!!! I'm sorry Chiarello beat Hubert by 1/2 a point though. His food did look awfully good, though.

The fact that Bayless has never been formally trained just blows me away! I hadn't realized that before.

Also, the weird chick that did the scallop-shrimp-overcomplicated-vice thing sounds EXACTLY like Mel from Flight of the Conchords.

OMG - you're right! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
