Survivor-- Oh My God, it was Immunity Idol heaven tonight! Loved Bob keeping his iimmunity and Sugar giving hers away. Fabulous! and nicely dramatic. Poor skinny Kenny is hoist by his own machinations, pretty much.
One question--why is Suzie still there? She is flying so far below the radar that she isn't even off the ground.
Yeah, that was a delightful TC. So much fun. I love all the machinations that have been going on. And I love Sugar more every week - turning the whole thing around on Kenny and Crystal like that. Plus I loved her little "let me do the thinking" to Matty, especially since each and every one of them have been so incredibly blind about her.
Oh! And on that blog, one of the commenters noted that fish sauce was listed as an ingredient in the curry and that it was what Eugene guessed and was eliminated for. Is that so? I already deleted the ep so I can't check.
He guessed fish sauce on the shrimp/lobster thing, not the curry.
I was surprised too that there wasn't more one-upping on that, especially given how many gimme ingredients there had to have been. I mean, the ingredients in a thai curry are not exactly unknowns. And come on - salt, oil, etc.?
Frankly, regardless of what else he did, I think Daniel should have gone home for the fact that he messed with Carla's dish without telling her.
THIS. Even if his intentions were good, he wound up sabotaging her dish! WTF, Daniel??

I think the object lesson of this episode, aside from "jealousy makes for hilarious screen takes," is that people need to speak up: Carla had to voice objections to her teammates, and Jamie and Radhika needed to speak up about how their team's dishes actually came together.
Yes.
You know even if it was Jamie's ingredient it was Radhika's marinade - she should have been given (or should have taken) more credit.
Jamie's spice mix is called "vadouvan."
Thanks! I knew you'd come through, Megan.

I thought the vadouvan was in the carrots not the marinade.
Regardless of who did what, I want that dish for my lunch!!!
Vadouvan! Fascinating!
Evidently there was a recipe for it in a summer issue of Gourmet this year.
I thought the vadouvan was in the carrots not the marinade.
I think it may have been in both.
I read a comment somewhere else saying that vadouvan is this year's ras al hanout.
Heh.
