So far on “Top Chef: Last Chance Kitchen,” the majority of the face-offs have been pretty predictable. Typically, a good rule of thumb on this show is that if you have a poor edit, you’re not going to be winning the duel on the web series. But, the good news about this particular edition was […]
Seriously, “Top Chef” presented itself a heck of an episode tonight. This was not only the best episode of the show, mostly because it actually delivered on everything that you could want. There was a little bit of cooking drama, but also two challenges that were themed around New Orleans, original, and produced a high […]
We should start this “Top Chef: New Orleans” article with a warning: If you don’t like the idea of watching a clip all about a dead animal, then stop reading now. We don’t imagine you watching a show about cooking meat if you have an ethical problem with it, but since this is a little […]
Following Wednesday night’s all-new “Top Chef” episode, we were of course eager to see what unfolded on “Last Chance Kitchen” given the quality of contestants that were there. Patty Vega was not one of those eliminated chefs who seemed to just be struggling with anything and everything when it comes to being a good chef; […]

Janine Booth is following in the footsteps of another great chef in Kristen Kish, at least when it comes to how she is dominating “Top Chef: Last Chance Kitchen.” So for her to face off against a man in Bene Bartolotta who played a part in her getting sent home from the competition itself earlier […]
“Top Chef” is now officially diving into the deep end of product placement. Instead of giving us challenges that encourage creativity, we had this week what amounted to a 30-minute commercial for Philadelphia Cream Cheese. This was not that long after we had a challenge that attempted terribly to make Reynolds Wrap into a star. […]
What is the only thing possibly more irritating than having a challenge themed almost all around a product? How about having two of them for two weeks in a row! As insane as that may sound (and it should sound insane), this is precisely what we are getting on Wednesday night’s “Top Chef: New Orleans” […]
Sometimes, it is pretty easy to get a feeling when someone from “Top Chef” is going on a “Last Chance Kitchen” winning streak, and it’s typically the person who is pretty likable on the show, and you sit there wondering how in the world she managed to go home in the first place. The mistake […]
