Re: Top Chef Next Season Starts Thursday, December 7

Well I'm glad the judges felt like it was a snoozefest like we did.

 

I am really liking the way they had the runners on the table at each place setting at the Governor's Mansion.

 

That was the highlight of the show for me.

I feel this whole season is a snoozefest.  Don't really care who wins.  Not even watching LCK this year.  Want to be a surprise.

another one bites the dust..... a bit of a surprise, but someone just did not step up their game.

this will be the last LCK for the season, i believe.

I thought it was a good episode. I think they needed the talk 

from Tom. They did need to step up their game. 

 

I think Bruce would have survived had he made pasta. But I think 

Padma’s comment on pasta again weighed on him. 

 

I was happy to see Adrian get praised. I am rooting for her. 

 

I was surprised they are not leaving Colorado for the finale. 

Normally they head to another locale. 

 

The season went fast. It may not have been the best season but 

this is still one of my favorite shows.

I thought it was a pretty good episode (Sorry--I didn't get to it until the weekend.  Because--Olympics)  Bruce fell to the old high altitude problem when cooking things--it takes longer to cook things here.  When they go to 10,000 plus feet, it will be even worse.  I'm glad Carrie is doing well.  I like her.  She's not as arrogant as some of them have been in the past.

Glad that Joseph Flamm came back from LCK.

 

So annoyed with the latest episode.  Carrie won again w/stupid toast?  Then she bails out on making beef wellington because of Paul LeBrandt and then she stays?  Give me a break.  Chris should have stayed.

@SWEET I agree with all that you posted.

 

When I saw the toast again, I was thinking this may be all she knows how to make.

I am surprised she did not make toast for the elimination challenge after backing out

of making the beef wellington. Very disappointing. Kind of seems like she will be the winner.

Where is Fabio when you need him yelling "This is Top Chef, Not Top Toast"

 

Chris was one of my favorites. It was sad to see him go.

 

I think next week will be between Joe stache and Carrie toast.

 

I think a better final would be Adrian and Joe Flamm.

To be fair to Carrie, beef Wellington at a high altitude, would be insanely challenging and likely a flop. She made a safer choice and survived. All of the food this week earned raves, so her decision likely kept her in the game. Had she gotten bold and tried the wellington, it likely would have been the least effective dish and she'd be gone.

I actually thought Brother was going to come back.  I suspect we'll see him on the finale.
