Mike Talks About Top Chef.
Happy Thursday!
1. Top Chef was a real winner of an episode last night. I’m going to talk about last night’s episode, so if you don’t want anything ruined, skip down to #2*. Here are the highlights!
- last night’s episode was sponsored by at least 5 billion separate products, including the NFL.
-Padma knows nothing about football. She clearly spent the whole episode trying to figure out why the NFL plays its biggest game in a bowl. However, I would like to encourage her to always wear a ref’s shirt. Holy sweet mother of boner! Hey, I just learned she used to be married to Salman Rushdie. Crazy!
- The little whippersnapper who was kicked off, Jeff I think, tried to do too much. He would take a simple ingredient like chicken and instead of cooking it in a pan, would launch it into space via the most powerful potatoe gun you’ve ever seen. You know, because he didn’t want to be mundane. Obviously, he’s a pretty talented dude, but I’m surprised he made it this far. Also, did anyone else notice that simply because he was from one part of the South, he claimed the entire southern United States as his home territory. Very strange.
-Fabio is really starting to get agitated. Over EVERYTHING. From “Bunky” beds to venison, Fabio spent the entire episode teetering on the edge of his sanity. I wonder if that gives him a competitive edge.
-Stefan is a dick. Mostly because he’s super insecure. I just diagnosed that motherfucker! For free!
-Good for Carla. The call for gumbo came at a time when she really needed to hit a home run, erm, score a touchdown. I really like her. I wish she and Fabio could combine and form one super chef. Then I could root for just one of them.
2. There is no number 2 today. I’m sorry. I should have been more honest at the start of this blog.
Hell’s Kitchen premieres tonight. 8pm on Fox. Just sayin’.
Fabio RULES! I was cracking up when he made that comment about sticking bananas in a monkey’s ass, haha. I’m glad Jeff went home. He was just too blonde and soft spoken for me. Ya gotta have da BALLZ to be a Top Chef, yo!
I was sad to see Jeff go, but it was time. But I also thought Fabio kind of deserved to go. I love him, but it was a tough choice. I can’t help it – I like Stefan. He is a dick, but I still like him. Carla is great. I just don’t really want to see anyone else go! Except Leah.
P.S. Padma did look totally hot in that Ref shirt.
I was really hoping Stefan would get axed. I knew he wouldn’t, but I was still hoping. I couldn’t stand it if he won the whole thing. And I think Fabio just grows more endearing as he gets more pissed off. I want him to stick around, but I still want Jamie to win.
