Hells Kitchen and the French Revolution

by Mikey

This last week’s Hells Kitchen started off great. We just watched Carol get axed and now we were gonna get to see 2 more who are in desperate need of the boot in Ben and Andrea. I’m thinking that Gordon is finally reading my letters and is about to just start going Soprano on this kitchen and wack the dead weight.

Nope! He is just being all reality twistified by just torturing two people with horrible self esteem by announcing there is now only one team.  But what you, me, and the rest of the world know, is that there are only a couple good chefs there and the rest are just waiting for the noose.

Being Fat on Hells Kitchen

by Mikey

We’re getting down to it now and as we dig a little deeper each week, the flaws of the chefs really start booming to the front.  It’s still amazing to me that they just cut Lacey, who had to scream out, “I can’t cook meat”, to be let go.

We still have plenty of chefs there who have about as much business being on the show as I do being the America’s next top model.  Andrea and Carol kept fighting from the end of last show into the start of this one.  There is nothing like two people who are horrible at something and fighting about it. We both pretty much suck, but you suck worse then I do, so you should leave.  In reality neither one has any business being there and both should go back to making macaroni and cheese at Denny’s.

Hells Kitchen and the Chicken Nugget

by Mikey

So on Hells Kitchen we lost another weak chef.  Another 8 weak chefs to go.  Coi goes home in another exchange with Chef Ramsey that leaves the weaker cook on the line.  Coi was a weak chef, but Andrea does more damage to a brigade.  Andrea acts like a leader and attempts to lead.  The problem with being a weak chef and trying to be a leader is that nobody respects you, or follows you, and you just end up looking like an ass.  Andrea is way to weak to lead.  I still argue that the majority of these chefs are weak.  The few good cooks keep quiet, trying to stay off Ramsey’s radar.  Not enough crying and misery in this episode.  Ramsey needs to step it up.

Top Chef Season 5 Wrap-up

by Brian

Well, that does it for another season of TV’s best food show (Sorry, Ramsey.)  With last night’s reunion over and done with, I thought I would milk Top Chef for one last post before it fades away for the next 9 months or so.

Anyway, for those of you who didn’t watch the reunion show, Fabio Viviani won fan favorite.  Good for him!  In my previous post I predicted that it would either be him or Carla taking home the crown, and as always, I was right.  Honestly, he deserved it for carrying the show.  This season of Top Chef was, in my opinion, one of the weakest talent-wise.  Sure Stefan and Hosea showed some skills, but it was Fabio who supplied the laughs along with the talent.

And now, my top 3 Fabio quotes of the season:

  1. “It’s Top Chef, not Top Scallop!” Continue reading →
