Last night we got the turkey day episode of Top Chef and for a second week in a row, it left me disappointed. Due to the late hour and a belly full of turkey I will be quick this week. I did enjoy the Quickfire Challenge quite a bit. At first I let out a loud groan over the self-promoting cookbook challenge but the “switch to soup” curveball was awesome and I loved seeing the results. Jaime’s soup (pictured above) was my pick and now I want her to open an all soup emporium. The Elimination Challenge however was lacking again. I hate these buffet type challenges. While one or two a year is ok it just seems unfair to have the chefs cook in these environments if you want to see their best work. I was sad to see Richard go because he was an entertaining character. His smores did look pretty bad though. I thought Don Johnson was going to get his walking papers but his organizational skills seemed to save him. I thought the successful dishes looked like nothing special and found myself agreeing with the rest of America that of the three groups featured in last night’s ep, I’d like the Foo Fighters to cook my next Thanksgiving meal.
