I like ICA, except it's too much Bobby Flay for me. *crosses finger that new Iron Chef is his replacement*

i agree... i like iron chef america, too. a lot more, actually, than the japanese version. the main reason being that i don't particularly find their weird ingredients relevant to my life. i cannot stand bobby friggin flay, either. too bad he isn't the one being replaced. but i will probably watch this show... if i remember... ~ cq

I'm gonna guess they were contacted by the IC America/Food Network execs. It wouldn't have surprised me at all if it becomes known that they tried to contact Kerry Simon or Todd English as they were not only involved in an Iron Chef America battle, but also a battle in the UPN's version of Iron Chef that had William Shatner play the Chairman role......

I enjoyed the first episode. I prefer Alton to Padma, and it's great to watch people who are more established chefs/restauranteurs duke it out.Here's a history of Iron Chef matches involving the contestants - I am cribbing this from Another Reality Site Which Shall Remain Nameless, but it looks right: John Besh - Win against Batali (Andouille) Traci Des Jardins - Win against Batali (shrimp) Aaron Sanchez - Draw with Marimoto (black Bass) Michael Symon - Loss to Marimoto (Asperagus) Chris Cosentino - Loss to Batali (Garlic) Mourou Quattara - Loss to Flay (frozen peas) Gavin Kaysen - ? Jill Davie - ?
I like the original AND the American. The original is just insane, and I lvoe the Liberace/Prince/Japanese Warlord Host.

and I thought all 8 were on the show previously.I just checked the Food Network Episode Listings....... Neither Kaysen and Davie were on Iron Chef America. Yahoo-fu tells me Kaysen was in the Bocuse D'Or, the World Cuisine Contest By the looks of things from the other search, Jill Davie was put into this contest as part of the Food Network/Fine Living working agreement....... She's a co-host on Shopping With Chefs....

>Here's a history of Iron Chef >matches involving the contestants - >I am cribbing this from >Another Reality Site Which Shall >Remain Nameless, but it looks >right:Wrong! >Mourou Quattara - Loss to Flay >(frozen peas) I watched this one and it was a tie. "And now the whole nation -- pulpit and all -- will take up the war-cry, and shout itself hoarse, and mob any honest man who ventures to open his mouth; and presently such mouths will cease to open. Next the statesmen will invent cheap lies, putting the blame upon the nation that is attacked, and every man will be glad of those conscience-soothing falsities, and will diligently study them, and refuse to examine any refutations of them; and thus he will by and by convince himself that the war is just, and will thank God for the better sleep he enjoys after this process of grotesque self-deception." Mark Twain

I lvoed the 1 bite challenge! This really showed how critical time is on IronChef. It always amazes me how quickly they can get started and finish in the time given. The innovative challenge? Interesting! And it is true that most of the Iron Chefs do use a lot of that equipment. I'm sure the chefs had more fun in the learning 90 minutes part than in the actual preparation part for the challenge. And the anti-grill? I'd like to try one of those!

Down to the final 3. I want to see Besh & Symon in the final 2. Those 2 seem have made the show (to me) - with their joking and having fun. Looks like they are/were already friends outside this show.I wasn't thrilled with the airplane challenge. Really doesn't have much to do with Iron Chef - except working under pressure and with equipment they are not familiar with and will never use again. And what was with telling them they needed extra spice/flavoring because taste changes at high altitude and then the the food was judged on the ground? guess it would have been pretty costly to put the plane in the air just to judge the food.

First, let me get my anal retentive streak out of the way.It's Chris Cosentino. Not Constantine. Sorry, but that was driving me crazy. I wouldn't necessarily write him off for the meltdown in the last challenge, either. Right now, the three best chefs, IMHO, are left. I've eaten at the restaurants of two of them and I've heard of Consentino's Incanto in San Francisco. I know he worked at Chez Panisse under Alice Waters. He's no lightweight. I'm still pulling for Symon though. Probably dooms him. "How does it become a man to behave toward this American government to-day? I answer that he cannot without disgrace be associated with it." - Henry David Thoreau

All I know is, according to the Food Network site, the winner will get his first match as an Iron Chef the following Sunday in Battle Thanksgiving...............

LAST EDITED ON 11-12-07 AT 08:57 PM (EST)Will Michael get turkey as his secret ingredient for his Thanksgiving challenge? It's entirely possible that turkey might be a part of the multiple theme ingredients that will be up on the stand. If the theme ingredient of the battle is Thanksgiving itself, there could possibly be turkey, cranberries, ham, chicken, duck, something to represent stuffing, both regular and sweet potatoes, pumpkins, etc. There is precedent for this: There has already been a Battle Breakfast (Eggs, bacon, sausage, milk, oj, etc. on the stand) and a Battle Farmer's Market (a multitude of fresh produce and chickens on the stand)

Yes, he won. They were even on plating, but on taste and originality, he kicked butt.

LAST EDITED ON 01-02-08 AT 06:48 PM (EST)>I liked that they had the other Iron Chefs do the >tasting and participate in the final judging. >Wonder what the count was on the vote? & who voted >for whom? You know, I can answer that question, because I read the blog posts from two of the judges. First off, everyone (not just the Iron Chefs) did tastings at the finale, but only the Iron Chefs were shown. The vote wasn't just for performance at the Kitchen Stadium but covered the entire season. The three judges told the Iron Chefs about the prior challenges and the outcomes. Had the vote just covered the finale, Beck would have won. Had it just included the three judges, Beck would have won. But it didn't. The final vote was 4-2. For Symon: Ruhlman, Flay, Cora, Morimoto. For Beck: Knowlton, Arpaia. Apparently Arpaia was very unhappy with the outcome and spent a lot of energy browbeating Ruhlman, Flay and Cora because of their votes for Symon. But we didn't get to see any of that.
