Yes, that would have been irritating. Either smaller chunks of duck or large, flat bowls.

That was the other duck dish though, right?

Oh, you're right.

BTW, I read that the next season of Top Chef is going to be filmed in DC.

Right. I was rooting for that team because I love Ana Sortun's food at Oleana. However, the judges were right about the whole duck breast in a bowl, though both dishes sounded absolutely nummy. I didn't so much agree about it being too casual a dish, but, then, I strongly favor flavor over presentation. You can't eat presentation.

Because books.

No PR talk?

I loved Emilio's dress like whoa. So clearly circus-inspired but it actually looked like something I would wear. Not real surprised by the top three.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I was surprised that Mila made it into the top three, but I can see the justification for the designer shoot-out between her and Jay.

Looking forward to the collections.

I couldn't figure out who the 3rd was going to be - so it makes sense that there was a tie.

Emilio's dress was amazing. And I love the whole fabric concept. Plus, bonus points for his model not looking like a ringmaster.

I think the results are exactly right. Anthony was really disappointing last night and I really couldn't decide between Mila and Jay.

Punishingly Intricate

I thought jay's jacket was hideous. But they were right about his pants.
