I'm dining at Graham Elliott Bowles' restaurant next month!

I love the show Lost so I was really happy about the theme - how can you fall asleep when you are really into the theme? They need to bottle this show and
sell it for sleep disorders.

The hostess is bland, and her head just seems so gigantic compared to the rest of her body. What is Padma doing that is so much more important than this?! I
never thought I'd think Padma was a great hostess but there you go.

OMG is the hostess dull and odd looking. Ms. Tracht is one of THE most respected chefs and business women in LA; but she was painful to watch. She seemed to
have had a botox injection that moved into her brain somehow: Stiff, stiff stiff. LOVED the Lesbian chef, but her food was way too risky :)

They've sucked all the fun and drama out of Top Chef. This thing feels like it was shot over three days.

And the quickfire is useless, as is. It is basically just an extension of the other part. It gives no help, no elimination, just stars. To me, that concept is
dry as a rain gutter in the sahara.

I don't get molecular gastronomy. But then again, culinary arts come across as pretentious and asinine to me. When I go into a restaurant, I want to eat
FOOD. REAL FOOD. SUSTENANCE. I see no point in digesting food that's been deconstructed to nothingness.

Culinary art does not mean deconstruction. I think the boring woman last night proved that. It was a full plate, indeed.

god this show is so boring, it's like a Sunday morning PBS version of Top Chef. and where the fuck is Gail? Not the fake "Gael" with her dopey
hats, the real one.
I guess it shows us the importance of casting directors since actual talented, successful people are not likely to be riveting television. also I think that a big part of the problem is that we are stuck watching a continuous "final four" episode. When reality shows get down to that point they usually speed things up or the show gets horrendously dull unless there is a good cast. Top Chef is no different, in fact this may especially apply to this show - I don't need or want to hear the same thing about the same dish regurgitated 87 times. YES I get it, the boring lady's plate was full but it worked omg!! OK, the lesbian had something that tasted like baby food. It treats the viewer like the dude from Memento...like we forgot everything that just happened.

No hate for worthless fat fuck "well shit I like food" Mike, the bloated moron Betty, and of course WWE in his new fuggo unshaven hipster doofus
persona? The girl scouts should be embarrassed to be placed on their level.
And this host is awful.awful.awful. It've been better had the brought back the soothing whirring of Joelbot. |

Yeah I hate that they brought those three worthless fucks back as supposed experts and hate it even more that the only tolerable one was Mike.

That's all nice, but it pretty much eliminates any cutthroat competitive element that makes the regular Top Chef so good. I thought that Suzanne Tracht was boring as hell, too, but I'm just glad to finally have a chef on one of these shows whose restaurant I've actually dined in. FWIW, I'm not a fan. I'm not a big carnivore (although she does simple fish and I eat that), and I hate the foodie trend where everything is a la carte and the vegetables are not included as part of the plate. |

Suzanne Tracht was less likeable than any contestant in all five seasons. What a tedious dreary unimaginative frau
 Whatever hate I had for Ilan melted
away with that awfulness of that wench.

Ilan wanted so much to be heard. He just wants people to take him seriously every time he is a "judge" on one of these shows. Poor baby. I bet he
also had a secret design on Wylie (cuz association with him would be great publicity).

The next show looks like it might be more interesting. Rick Bayless and Ludo Lefebvre have some conflict. The main task is a street task selling food
outdoors.
