Beyond Reality - Top Chef NYC Recap - 12/03/08
Last time Richard was sent home. Quickfire-guest judge Rocco DiSpirito-in 30 mins create an amuse bouche breakfast. Bottom-Daniel & Fabio. Top-Stefan, Leah & Jamie. Leah wins immunity & Rocco's new cookbook-Rocco gets real. Elimination challenge-create a dish for a two & a half min presentation on live TV. Judged on quality & presentation. 30 mins & $100 to shop at whole foods & 1 hour for prep. Demonstrate for Tom, Padme, Gail & Rocco. Quite a few people ran out of time & weren't very good on camera. Bottom 3-Melissa, Alex, Jamie. Top 3-Jeff, Fabio & Ariane. Tom kidnaps the top three & makes them cook for the Today show. The hosts will be picking the winner on live TV. They choose Ariane's watermelon salad. She wins a special bag of tools handpicked by Rocco & she gets to demonstrate her dish on the Today show today (12/4/08). Bottom 3-Melissa(too spicy), Alex (bad choice), Jamie (uncooked & poor attitude). Alex is eliminated. Next week-Gail's bridal shower!

its so easy to critique, once you work with food, and make up your own recipes on the spot, on the line, especially an amuse bouche you will never know the kind of pressure cooks are under, get a real hobby

It's funny how Janet had a cough last week, and now Maddie has Janet's cough this week! It looks like Fabio is really going to charm the ladies next week at the bridal shower. I love Carla, she cracks me up with her facial expressions and reactions sometimes. They didn't make a big deal out of Hosea and Leah hooking up, but that's exciting news! It seems like they are setting up for Fabio to be the star and pet, and I think Padma wants to jump his bones. Something is going on with those two!!
