She didn't ping me as a great chef in the early days of the season, but she must have some mad skills and a good palate
She strikes me as an Art Smith type -- maybe not the most innovative chef ever, but someone who cooks delicious food in a particular style. I really like her, too -- she reminds me of Antonia, in that she's not really buckling under the pressure and just seems to have a steady, kind head on her shoulders.
I'm totally rooting for Tiffany.
When you say "Andrea" - you mean "Amanda", right? I mean, cooking with alcohol for kids girl, right?
I can't believe that they let another opportunity to send her home go.
I don't like Angelo but I do think he was mostly having a really bad day. We'll see if the killer fatigue has him if he can't bounce back from this.
And I would have been happy if either any of the top three had won today - all are chefs that I like.
Oh! Yeah, Amanda.
I forgot to tape Top Chef. And then I realized I didn't care. Wherefore art thou must-watch shows?
Well, try to watch the quickfire - that was interesting. It was a take on the mystery box where they get the box, start cooking and then: they get another box and repeat 'til end of quickfire.
The elimination challenge was to "disguise" a classic dish so that the diners couldn't immediately guess what it was.
Meanwhile, I've started to watch last night's MasterChef and I'm liking the format so far.
Oh yeah. I missed the first say, 20 minutes of it but I got the rest and quite enjoyed it. Good to see Ramsey in food loving non-shouty mode.
I can never remember Amanda's name, so I just call her Leah. She's like her doppleganger or something. Which means she'll get super far in the competition without having much skill.
I almost watched Master Chef last night, but then I found Poltergeist on WGN and stuck with that.
I can never remember Amanda's name, so I just call her Leah.
YES, this.
I watched a TC:M repeat from the first season and I just love Rick Bayliss (and Hubert Keller) SO SO MUCH. Chiarello was not so much of an ass as I remembered him- in this ep anyway, the one with Zooey Deschanel and the tribe of misunderstood vegans.
