"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I really dislike the too sweet dessert woman. She is a whiner and a complainer. the whole "if they don't like it, it's on you" thing was ridiculous.

Also, her crying because she "didn't deserve it"? Lame.

She reminds me of Church-Lady-Face (Lisa?) from last year, so I already despise her.

I read used to work with Ariane and said she was a good chef but kind of mean and a screamer. not "shy" at all.

As my housemate said first episode, "A shy person would not use a lame pun on their name for their restaurant name."

Because books.

So far I like Jamie and Hosea, despite his total misstep last night. Oh, and Eugene! That might be because I want to rub his little peach fuzz head, though.

I was just surprised at how many dishes went wrong last night. Maybe especially Hosea's, since that was also a dish he'd made before.

That's about who I like. And hope they totally trounce both Fabio and Stefan, who are already grating on me.

Fabio is sort of charming still (for me) but Stefan is the sort of arrogant that rubs me the wrong way immediately.

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

I'm kind of confused as to how she screwed it up.

From what I've gathered watching Iron Chef and TAR, ostrich eggs just don't taste very good. They also have a completely different texture than a chicken egg, so if you treat one ostrich egg like a dozen chicken eggs without making any other adjustments, you're going to wind up with something tough and gluey.

Given the options available to her, she'd have been much better off buying some chicken eggs and some duck/goose/quail or other exotics to round out the flavors.

I really like Fabio! He's funny to me not obnoxious like Stefan. I liked Hosea until he made that crab mistake.

Here's an interview with Jill:

I really wanted to try Jamie's sweet corn soup. That sounded delicious.

I would totally eat that winning meal (if you put together the top three) every day. Well, once a week, anyways.

Stefan is the sort of arrogant that rubs me the wrong way immediately.

Especially that "There's nothing wrong with my hot dog!" bitch he made. Oh well, they seem to need a talented asshole every year - it's probably him.
