"All Stars General Discussion" |
I think it's best if we keep all our discussions in one place rather than have a bunch of too specific threads scattered about with only one reply each. What do you think?Anyway... After the 1/5 episode... I never liked Casey. I thought she got lucky in her season. She made many mistakes and somehow made it to the finale. I am glad she is gone, but really Jamie needs to go! When she does actually cook and serve something, it ALWAYS scallops! Dale and Marcel are still both azzes. So is Angelo... and Michael. I am still liking Antonia, Tre, the Tiffanies and Carla. Richard and Fabio are OK.

I hate when they have an elimination that involves someone having to do a dish that doesn't get the same amount of time as the other chefs. I don't think anyone should have to do front of the house duty - they don't get judged on that. I somehow think that those chicken feet would have been better had Casey been about to be in the kitchen the whole time.

I like Antonia & Carla is a trip! She'd be a lot of fun to hang with. Wish Tre would get it together - he makes mistakes just like before - he needs to think out his dishes better.

I haven't watched yet since the DVR is hooked up to the fire hazard TV. But when I do I'll chime in! I'm enjoying the All-Stars.

I love Fabio, but it kind of seems that unless it is Italian food, he is lost. I thought it was funny when he was upset that they sold turtles in the Chinese market.

LAST EDITED ON 01-13-11 AT 02:21 PM (EST)I was thinking the same! I am sick of Marcel and his foam bullsh--! ... and I am sick of the team challenge bullsh--! Antonia would have won except for her team was bad? I am getting tired of that. They need to judge them as individuals. It's Top Chef not Top "Chef-on-a-team"! I was glad to see Carla win and Jamie go home, but will miss Tiff F. See? Jamie could not make scallops and then she sucks! Ha!

Jamie sucks when she actually cooks. She should have been voted off then. Other shows, they put on bandaids and gloves and deal with it later. Even on the Cake Boss's show, the guy's hand was on fire and he kept on going - he did put the fire out first!

w00t! Marcel is gone!That was too funny how they were showing that anytime Antonia is on a team, one of her team mates goes... and then, it happened again! I thought the team that won, Richard, Dale, Carla, Tre and Fabio was excellent. I think they are the real all stars this whole season and I bet one of them will win the whole shebang. The other team, Marcel, Antonia, Angelo, Tiffany and Michael have no idea how a 'team' works! I am hating Angelo more this season than I did last season and think he's way over rated. I don't see any of these people winning. ...but as I said last week, enough of the team challenges now!!!

15. "RE: 1/19 Restaurant Wars" |
Fabio is such a gentleman and a lady's man! I tell you, if he wasn't a chef, he could be just about anything. Actor in a soap, for sure! LOL. He has the moves DOWN!He really makes you love him, just being who he is. I fell in love with him on his first season with the British dude (who was incredibly rude, but somehow got along with Fabio). He is just gooood stuff! And his food seems right on the mark, too. But I get the feeling that Anthony Bordain is not crazy about him and they seem to butt heads whenever he is there on the judge's panel, for some reason.... I see Carla, Fabio, Michael and Dale as the stronger chefs. But it's really hard to tell. Seems that the judges draw straws at times to figure out who's going home. I have seen things that I didn't feel was fair in their judging, considering a person has been strong in other areas, yet one mistake has sent them home that week. But Jamie kept hanging on while doing practically nothing, and when she DID do something it was all wrong. Oh well...they ARE the judges, right??

I've never heard of Marcel's Quantum Kitchen on Syfy. I always like the episodes that featured his molecular gastronomy techniques so I'll have to search around and see if it's airing yet.

28. "RE: Can't believe Fabio is gone...." |
As I sit here, hankies in hand, I have to try to pull myself together and remind myself that this is just a reality show. Life will go on. But without Fabio, I just don't see how....He was my rock, my inspiration, my reason for waking up in the morning. And now....because of one, stupid, meat-loaf tasting, hambrugrer, he's gone. Out of my life, off my TV, off of Top Chef. But hopefully not forever. They can make him pack his knives, but they cannot destroy the MAN behind the apron!! He is the most suave, sophisticated chef that has ever graced this show, and I can guarantee you, HE WILL RETURN!!! My Fabio will be back! Eat that, Padma!

Although I don't think Fabio's cooking came across all that well this season, it just didn't matter. I think he needs to be given his own show, either a cooking show or a reality show. If Marcel can get his own show and Buddy Valastro can get several shows, including the latest when he makes Italian dishes while yelling, then surely, there is something out there for Fabio.

37. "2/16" |
So Dale wins both the quickfire and the elimination challenge. He actually didn't annoy me as much this week. I wonder why? Either he wasn't as bad or maybe I'm just getting used to him. *shrug* As I said before, he does have talent, but I don't like him much.The guest judges in the quickfire were awesome! I loved it. I am glad Angelo is gone. I haven't cared much for him for two seasons now. Funny how the guy who has his hand in everyone else's dishes may have been done in by another cheftestant... but, I thought Michael said "no more salt" rather than "needs more salt"? So now we're down to six... Antonia, Carla, Tiffany, Dale, Richard, & Michael. 3 ladies, 3 men. I cannot see Antonia, Tiffany or Michael winning. Carla - maybe. I feel it may come down to Richard or Dale. How 'bout you?

I never thought I would say this, but I actually cried after last night's elimination. I really liked Angelo, and then when he announced he got kicked off and Mike was so shocked, I just teared up. It was weird. I kind of hope Tiffany goes next. I really thought she would be kicked off last night, but oh well. I guess putting something inedible out once trumps putting out something boring consistently. I REALLY want Blais to win. I love him so much. Antonia gets on my nerves. If she goes home next time or the time after, I will be perfectly happy. If I had my way, this would be how the rest of the competition goes: 6. Antonia 5. Tiffany 4. Mike 3. Dale 2. Carla 1. Blais

43. "RE: 2/16" |
Oh, I plan to look up the recipe for Dale's quickfire cookie. Anything that promises salty, sweet, chewey and chocolatey sounds like perfect food, to me. Plus, hey, if Cookie Monster liked it I need to give it a try. I also have to mention that I'm enjoying Anthony Bourdain this season. I've gone back and forth about whether I like him or think he's too full of himself, but I've finally decided that even though he is full of himself, I like him anyway. His blog entries about each episode are insightful with a big dose of laugh-out-loud funny.
(It's snarky, rude, not-PG-13 laugh out loud funny so if you haven't read his blog and decide to do so, you've been warned. His description of Dale's loser-season butterscotch scallops from Ep. 1 killed me.) A Mmmmmmmoonie plate special!

So we got another episode of Fabio! Yay!...but then he had to leave. Boo! ...but he helped Richard win! Yay! ...and Richard is taking him to Barbados as a reward. Awww!!! I think Mike is a douche! I am hoping he's gone next. At this point, I would be baffled if Richard doesn't win. Baffled, I say! Even though Antonia is starting to come on strong, she still makes mistakes from not thinking.

I didn't go by his measurements on any of it. I used just the regular size bags and only used a patial of each maybe a half. I make a strawberry desert that has a preztel crust so kind of went by that. I probably quartered the recipe, but I should have only halved it. And for the salt on the ganache I have some Australian Murry River salt that I sprinkled on top.

Sooo... nobody was eliminated.The final five remains because they were all so awesome. Antonia and Mike are now cousins and lurve each other. Antonia is psychic. Tom now likes okra because of Tiffany. Richard dumped Fabio like a hot potato and expressed his love for Dale. Carla met her hubby on match.com Oh boy!

58. "Final Four" |
You were right. It was the quickfire! I thought that was pretty cool!So they flew 5 of them to the Bahamas just to eliminate one more. I will miss sideshow Carla! She was fun! That sucked when the kitchen caught on fire and they had to redo their dishes for the elimination challenge. Too bad it was after they knew it wasn't a real king's fancy party they were cooking for, because they second guessed their dishes. We're down to Antonia, Michael, Richard and Tiffany. Antonia is hit or miss, but I like her. I don't see her winning given her previous errors and her ability to psych herself out. Michael is a jerk and I would hate it the most if he wins. Richard is who I'm rooting for and he definitely has the talent. Tiffany????? I can't believe she's still here. Hasn't won anything (except finally this quickfire, which wasn't really a quickfire win, given there were several winners of $10,000) and winds up in the bottom all.the.time.

70. "RE: Final TWO!" |
These two are so polar opposites, it will be a real showdown tonight, to say the least, of not only culinary talents, but personalities!Whether Blaze wins or not, he will be sweating it out, freaking, running back and forth, crying, screaming, hitting himself, etc! LOL. Mike, on the other hand, will be laughing, drinking his beer, playing it all up and down, and every which way, just trying to chill out. But I know they both have to be SOOOO wanting this title that eluded them on their last quest. I personally have been hoping for a Mike win, since my Fabio was knocked off, but these final 2 have come so far, done so well, and either one will be fine. They are both excellent chefs who deserve to be where they are. Good luck to them both tonight!!!
