Quaker Oats challenge?!?!? Top Chef New York just keeps setting the bar lower and lower. At least they didn’t have to use the Diet Dr. Pepper a few weeks back. The Quickfires have been the stronger challenges for the most part this year but this makes three bad ones in a row. The All Star challenge was certainly unique and I did enjoy seeing some of the also-rans from seasons past. Too bad they didn’t have any investment or motivation to truly compete or I figure our season 5 folks would have gotten killed. Jeff was long overdue to get the boot as his convoluted style made for messy, ugly plates. Stefan my have stumbled but he and Jamie are still the only chefs worth anything. On the plus side Eric Rippert returns next week to cook and criticize which usually makes for a good show and Carla, while not much of a Top Chef, continues to be the lone bright spot character wise. The winning prize had to be the best ever as Carla got two Super Bowl tickets. Holy crap that’s certainly better than an autographed Rocco DiSpirito book. In honor of her win, I give you this heartfelt tribute.
