the male student has some scary ass knife skills for a chef his age

[zifnabsdragon]

Hurray to Karine for losing so much weight :) I know how hard it is when you love good food.

[ducky811]

I would LOVE to see the student's coach Chef Eric Watson do battle in kitchen stadium. I'll bet he could hang with ANY of the Iron Chefs.

dang, Kareen lost a lot of weight

[SWAT2291]

I get a little annoyed every time Kevin mispronounces kon ban wa.

[JustOneAsbesto]

How old is this episode? Karine either lost or gained a LOT of weight.

"I'm a kinder, gentler chef in my old age." You gotta love Symon's sense of humor.

[b1rdkeeper]

For some reason I used to underestimate Symon.

@ivenstorm Oh I hadn't heard that. Makes sense though. I watched "Food Network Unwrapped" and I believe they said the chefs get 15 min's after the unveiling to come up w/their dishes and 1 hour to make just one plate of each. Then they get 2 hours after that to duplicate what they did for all the other judges.

[ivenstorm]

they get a list of 5 potential ingredients, and they have to make up 5 dishes for each designating who will do what.

all in all 25 different variations

[WillyTung]

@roccoiiooii I read somewhere that they get a list a potential ingrediants so it gives them some time to plan. They don't know WHAT it will be though until it is revealed on the show.

Not sure if that's correct but it seems to work.

[roccoiiooii]

So the minute the 'secret'ingredient is revealed they all start working without discussing who will do what.

On top of that they get all kinds of ingredients out, and they all know what to do right away..

I dunno, this somehow seems a little.......staged?

Takes a big part of the fun out of watching.
