Top Chef Chicago
« on: March 13, 2008, 12:29:17 AM »
This is the only reality show I get excited about and this years crew seems like a bunch of bad asses.

It's fabulous. Salty food will get you kicked off every time. (especially if you go from no salt in the quickfire to uber salt in the challenge)

Richard Blais will win this. 

I was kinda hoping that GG "Glorified Nachos" Allin would get the boot, but as Erika said, salt errors will guarantee your demise.

Great first episode.

Thank you, Omar.  I may check it out.  So far I've avoided all the Top Chefs, but since I've been enjoying the various Ramsay offerings (though I must say I'm getting very tired of the man), I'm thinking I might get a kick out of this.

Argh!  I don't even have a TV for the moment, let alone cable - I'm missing one of my favorite things!
There's a restaurant around the corner from me that apparently has one of their chefs in the show.  Maybe I should see if they're watching it in the place every week, or something.

Early impression: that guy Dale seems like a complete douche. He's acting like he's part of some cage match competition with his camo threads and weird, smoldering aggression.  Get over yourself, man.

He's basically Hung Huynh (though I doubt his knife skills are as good) after a few shots of "B-12" from Brian McNamee.

Haha! I liked GG, he'll be fun to have around. Bit of an oaf. Good natured. He'll take a bottle to the skull no doubt. I'm calling him GG from now on.

I already hate Dale and And-"fuckyoufucking shit cocksucker"-rew. Andrew seems like the guy who can't get through a "good morning" without cursing you out. He acts like a dork with Tourettes who thinks he's a b-boy. He looks most likely to stab someone by accident, by impulse.

I also have a good feeling about Richard Blais. I hope he opens up a BBQ-styled joint called Blaising Saddles.

I agree, my Swedish friend! We're only one episode in, and I'm already sick of Andrew and his obnoxious mannerisms. As much as I dislike him, shame on Richard for taking two pans. Dick move indeed! Also, his mohawk is kind of sad looking. It looks like a cowlick! And he's wearing Crocs, so he can go directly into my Hate Pit.

Didn't you guys all come around to like the person you hated last time? The mousse dude.
