Top Chef: Cold War (with a side trip to cJ’s Miami)
Posted on 2010.07.23 | 2 CommentsAlso known as “the claws come out.” Miami Detour As soon as I saw that Michelle Bernstein was going to be the guest judge on this episode of Top Chef, I knew there could be some tension since both Michelle and Andrea are chefs in Miami. Andrea starts the day in a “good place” but as soon as she sees Michelle she gets super tense and kind of bitter. Andrea says she’s not so sure if you sat down at Michelle’s restaurant and hers that one would be so much better than the other. I’m sorry to say, Andrea, that... -
Top Chef: Catch-Up Edition
Posted on 2010.07.20 | No CommentsI’m back from my technology hiatus and have now watched each of the three episodes I haven’t recapped at least two times each. I guess that’s what happens when I deprive myself… I go overboard to catch up (just ask my weight which knows what happens when I skip meals or diet — DOH!).

And all I can think is, if you know you are going on... -

Posted on 2010.06.24 | No CommentsWe’re back for the second week of Top Chef DC and as I watch the opening montage, I’m thinking, I didn’t even notice some of these people last time. Like Andrea from Talula in Miami Beach — hey, I used to eat there too! It is a White House themed episode with a “bi-partisan” sandwich and the contestants draw knives to see who they are partnered with. Angelo makes a smart-ass comment about how he owns a sandwich shop in NY and if he loses the challenge he might have to close the shop. Kenny meanwhile blathers that he doesn’t... -
Top Chef is Back — in DC
Posted on 2010.06.17 | No CommentsThe new season of Top Chef is here. And bring out the snark, the snottiness and the nastiness. 17 chefs out of the gate. As always they are all over the place from self-taught personal chefs to the guy who has already earned a Michelin star and the one who won a rising star chef award. (Sidenote: the lines between the bottom of Top Chef Masters and the top tier of Top Chef contestents seem to be blurring. What’s the real difference?) There’s only one chef out of the lot whose restaurant I’ve eaten at — Kelly Liken, which is...
