H...To the guy/gal above: He most certainly did not. He had technique, but no soul.<BR/><BR/>I wanted it to go to my girl Carla so bad. She still my, and according to the poll, the fan's, top chef. In my eyes, Hosea is unworthy. He should have gone home on the seafood episode. Hell, he should have gone instead of Arianne for not stepping up ans butchering the lamb.<BR/><BR/>Carla was off her game tonight, and let someone push her around - again. I was muttering it when I started seeing Casey meddle: "Girl, don't lose your vision!" She lost it, and it cost her the title. Had she brought what she'd been bringing the past few episodes- that fire, passion, that *care* to her food, she'd be Top Chef. As it was, based on that meal tonight, it couldn't go to her, Stefan too made too many errors, so it had to go to the one who made the least amount of errors. In my mind Hosea kind of gets it by proxy. He didn't truly earn it, not tonight. It also annoyed me that he and Stephan never seemed to consider Carla a threat.<BR/><BR/>On a closing note, I liked seeing that the Euro-Bot may actually have a heart. This episode was very anti-climatic, because to me, it didn't feel like a real battle (not like Season 2 between Ilan and Marcel, now THAT was a duel, all they were missing was the pistols) but all things, both good and bad (go away recession!) must come to an end I suppose.<BR/><BR/>Oh and I like this blog and would like to see it come back next season, for what it's worth.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17795262299707088255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089978711517804658.post-50304169898766554622009-02-25T23:01:00.000-05:002009-02-25T23:01:00.000-05:00They've got to be kidding.

She messed Carla up and why did Carla let Casey convince her to sous vide (WHY?) and she said let's do a souffle.<BR/>I thought the helpers were much more involved than in previous seasons. Aren't they around to chop onions and stuff? I hate you even more Casey. You ruined Carla's chances. That Carla of all people made a terrible dessert is so so sad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089978711517804658.post-52424333700468903052009-02-25T22:31:00.000-05:002009-02-25T22:31:00.000-05:00Carla's sous vide/souffle combo seems like a disas...Carla's sous vide/souffle combo seems like a disastrous idea. Hosea's plan to make plain sashimi 1/3 of the best meal of his life seems like one too. I bet Tom will end up feeling the same way about that as he felt about Marcel's green salad in season two.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
