On Thursday night’s new episode of “Top Chef,” we saw what was in the end a somewhat-predictable result. Giselle Wellman seemed to be very nice (and she commented as such in many a confessional), but she just couldn’t mesh with the other chefs and seemed to not speak up for herself enough. This sent her […]
“Top Chef: California” had almost everything that you could possibly hope for in its new episode Thursday night: There were funny moments, sentimental ones (how can you not get emotional watching Padma Lakshmi marry 25 same-sex couples at once?), and also some great, chaotic ones that remind us of why this is excellent reality television. […]
Thursday night marks the return of “Top Chef” after a couple of weeks off the air, and this is going to mark a great opportunity to see some of the remaining chefs compete in what is a very different sort of episode. First and foremost, let’s talk the sneak peek below. In it, host Padma […]
We’ve been spending the past few weeks getting immersed into “Top Chef: California,” which we’ve found for the most part so far to be an extremely fun and engaging batch of episodes for the show. While we’re not entirely sure that we’d say just yet that they are the best we’ve ever seen in the […]
We’re a couple of weeks behind getting into “Top Chef: Last Chance Kitchen,” but if there was ever a great jumping-off point for this season, it had to be the week that Grayson made her grand entry into the proceedings. She’s supremely entertaining, mostly because her rapport with Tom Colicchio is on another level. She […]
We’re a little bit late in getting this “Top Chef” review online, but in this case, there’s still a lot of great stuff in here to digest before we get to the next all-new episode of the show on January 7. For one, we have to talk about the elimination, which may be one of the most […]
“Top Chef” continues to mess with us time and time again when it comes to its edit. There are times when we feel almost as though it intentionally works overtime to throw us off, and they did just that with the third episode of their “California” season Wednesday. Basically, the show went a long ways […]
The world has to be rather rough for Renee on “Top Chef: California.” One moment you’re proclaiming yourself as the “sassy chef” to the disdain of pretty much everyone (note: Never give yourself an adjective ever), and then the next moment you’re being sent out the door in a vegan challenge. We liked the structure […]
Let’s face it: “Top Chef” premieres are never at the top of the list for outstanding entertainment. The vast majority of the time, there are just way too many chefs competing in way too short a period of time. This happened yet again with the season 13 (subtitled “California”) premiere, which placed the contestants into […]
We’ve been waiting a long time to find out some of the first details regarding “Top Chef” season 13. The show typically premieres a little earlier in the fall, but today it was confirmed that the series is instead returning to Bravo with a two-night premiere starting on Wednesday, December 2 at 10:00 p.m. Eastern time. The […]
