Top Chef final four.
There is only so many ways you can prove you’re a geek but I have to admit, I’m pretty excited for the final four of Top Chef.
In my opinion, Lisa made it by the skin of her teeth. It seems programmed that they’d have three women in the final four. Spike did screw up using the frozen scallops, he lost his way by trying to compete rather than trying to produce the absolute best food possible. His winning the quick challange and getting first pick from the walk in wasn’t much of a prize. His competitors, I’m sure, could make something delicious out of next to nothing. It would have been a better move to think about what you want to make, what message you want to convey, then choose appropriate ingredients. Seems like he was, again, trying to take away options from his fellow chefs.
Onward though.
Lisa is still in my gun sites and I hope she goes down in a fiery blaze of bad tasting failure. Richard, Stephanie and Antonia are all people I’d love to get to know. Lisa is a person I hope never to be stuck in an elevator with.
Not sure what the format of the show will be. Maybe they kick two off tonight, maybe its the whole enchalata in one show. Either way, Lisa must loose and beyone that my favorites in order are Richard, Stephanie and Antonia.
PS - Hopeing for a Bourdain cameo tonight.
