And then the shrimp was COLD.

Yeah, I thought that Eugene might go home but Daniel's completely incorrect perception that his food was good totally sealed his fate.

I was so amused that Jeff's sorbet was the favorite of that group. I sadly missed Stefan's expression. (Although I can imagine it.)

Didn't Leah say something about their dish missing some pizzaz? Some crunch or something?

Because books.

She did -- said it needed more crunch, which I guess they were thinking the cornmeal would provide?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

And then the shrimp was COLD.

Seriously. People worried about serving sorbet in that set-up, but tempura's no better.

Oh man I like Eugene but he's very lucky Daniel was delusional about the food. What a mess!! And Carla not speaking up in the beginning drove me batty!

What else could they have done for New? I was thinking of something w/ new potatoes and baby vegetables. I don't know about the protein though.
