asmodeus Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Just finished watching the latest episode of Top Chef Season 7 ...... It was a fun episode. The quickfire challenge really put ANGELO out of his groove. And that also included rattling him in the elimination challenge ....... what was ANGELO thinking in using ready made puff pastry for his dish???? If ALEX hadn't produced a worse dish, then we might have seen the second top seed sent home. TIFFANY and ED seemed to be on a roll ...... I think the past three episodes, they have managed to stay on top (if not win the elimination challenge) Quote Link to comment
Wyld Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 hahahahaha. Spoiler !!!! I was just going to download the episode. haha sorry. i was just so happy to see him go! Quote Link to comment

I think the past three episodes, they have managed to stay on top (if not win the elimination challenge) i think if it wasnt alex sent home, it would have been amanda - i have no idea why she is still there. shes ditzy and cant cook to save her life. it was so funny when she said she admires alex -- lol birds of a feather, much? angelo needs to keep it together - this is always the point when the so called top seeds of the competition unravel (richard blais, kevin gillespie, etc). if he doesnt, then i foresee him going home soon after amanda does. how can chefs not know what a ramp is? and how can chefs not know how to make chinese food? im baffled.

asmodeus Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 (edited) haha sorry. i was just so happy to see him go! It's ok ....... I was happy to see him go too. i think if it wasnt alex sent home, it would have been amanda - i have no idea why she is still there. shes ditzy and cant cook to save her life. probably AMANDA is so far lucky that someone happens to be cooking far worse than her. How long till her luck runs out ????? it was so funny when she said she admires alex -- lol birds of a feather, much? I was thinking the same thing when I saw her made thos remarks ...... like duuuuh. How can anybody admire ALEX. (I actually can't wait for the reunion episode, of which I'm sure the pea puree issue will be brought up) angelo needs to keep it together - this is always the point when the so called top seeds of the competition unravel (richard blais, kevin gillespie, etc). if he doesnt, then i foresee him going home soon after amanda does. Presently, ANGELO is supposed tobe the strongest ....... he'd better stay focus if he wants to reach the finals. I had to admire TIFFANY for helping out KELLY with the rice and I think during plating ........ in th end, both of them were in the top three of the elimination. how can chefs not know what a ramp is? and how can chefs not know how to make chinese food? im baffled. Good thing I'm not a chef because I too am not familiar with Ramps. hahahaha Chinese Food ???? I think some of the other chefs are not classically trained hence their unfamiliarity with a little asian cooking. Edited August 20, 2010 by asmodeus Quote Link to comment

I think some of the other chefs are not classically trained hence their unfamiliarity with a little asian cooking. tonight is top chef night again. ill remember not to post spoilers LOL. as for not knowing what ramps are, and not knowing how to cook chinese food - i think an important trait a chef must have is common sense. if you dont know what something is, taste it and based on what you taste, pair it up or cook it in the appropriate way. if you havent cooked chinese food before, im sure you have eaten it - based on what you have eaten, break it down in your had and find the flavor profile. a lot of it is thinking on their feet. kelly did that by reverse engineering the dish. she looked up ingredients in a sauce mix and used those. that works too. to my mind though - its not an excuse to say "i have not cooked / tasted that before" -- youre a chef, youre job is to figure it out and cook it.

asmodeus Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 I wasn't paying attention .... turns out that Top Chef Season 8 is already showing (at least in the US) Also known as Top Chef All Stars as some of the contestants (from season 1 to 7) who got elimininated or weren't able to win are back. If I' not mistaken, some included in the contest are the likes of MARCEL (Season 2) TREY (Season 3) DAYLE (Season 4) FAVIO (Season 5) JEN (Season 6) ANGELO (Season 7) ....... its downloading time again. wooohoooo Quote Link to comment

asmodeus Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Finally got to download the first 4 episodes of TOP CHEF SEASON 8 ..... I took a glance at the intro of episode 1 and it got me all excited. A lot of my favorites from the past couple of seasons were around to compete again. With the exception of 2 contestants from Season 1 and 2, I think I'm more or less familiar with the rest. STEPHEN (Season 1)MARCEL (Season 2)CASEY, DALE L. & TRE (Season 3)SPIKE, ANTONIA, DALE TALDE (Fil-Am) & RICHARD (Season 4)CARLA, FAVIO, JAMIE (Season 5)JEN, MIKE (Season 6)ANGELO, TIFFANY (Season 7) --------------------------------------- On a personal sidenote: It would have been awesome if BRIAN VOLTAGGIO or KEVIN GILLESPIE from Season 6 joined in also.

WesternDigital Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Anong channel yung mga japanes chef na naglalaban-laban? Ginaya dito nina Zoren Legaspi yan, kaso ang corny eh. Quote Link to comment
DocAlex Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Guys , Any MTC member who joined the Contest? Feb 19 and 20 was the 2 days elimination round to get the Top 3 as reps for NCR.Series of schedules for Pampanga , Pangasinan, Davao and Cebu is set for auditions. Quote Link to comment
asmodeus Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 (edited) Just watched the latest episode of Top Chef Season 8 and its quite sad to see our very own Fil-Am DALE TALDE sent home....... I was really rooting for him since he was really strong in the previous episodes and has won many challenges. Oh well, thats life sometimes in Top Chef as One Bad Dish can send you packing. So does that mean "Mr. Willy Wonka" RICHARD BLAIS is the top seed to take home the title ????? With around 3 more episodes to go, anything can still happen. Oh I'm also rooting for CARLA ......... if ever she gets to the finale, lets hope she sticks to her style of cooking. Edited February 25, 2011 by asmodeus Quote Link to comment
asmodeus Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Another one of the contestants I'm rooting for in TOP CHEF SEASON 8 got booted out ....... and she is none other than Season 5 Finalist CARLA HALL. ---------------------------------------------------- So there are now 4 left and they are........ RICHARD BLAIS (Season 4) TIFFANY DERRY (Season 7) MIKE ISABELLA (Season 6) ANTONIA (Season 4) Of the 4 remaining, only RICHARD BLAIS has the experience at being in the Finals....... ANTONIA was in the top 4 but got booted out in her season. Quote Link to comment
asmodeus Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 (edited) With the elimination of TIFFANY last week from TOP CHEF ALL STARS we are now down to RICHAR, ANTONIA and MIKE....... I'm not certain if this coming week will be the very last competition for this season but it looks like MIKE ISABELLA has the psycological edge since he was able to win in the last two elimination challenges. (much to the disappointment of RICHARD) I'm still rooting for "Mr. Willy Wonka" RICHARD BLAIS though i hope he gets out of his "I'm always worried" mentality so that he can confidently cook the best food. As for ANTONIA ....... she's definitly the dark horse here. Edited March 23, 2011 by asmodeus Quote Link to comment
