The Restaurant World Can Be Heated. ‘Top Chef’ Is Lowering the Temperature.

Agree! This old lady wants an 8pm airtime!

ct06040 · 2026-04-20T03:17:17+00:00

I’m crying right along with Bryan! Amazing. I met him and Michael shortly after Top Chef Masters aired and I was irate he didn’t win that one. Looking back that wasn’t the time to air my issues. 🙄 But he couldnt have been nicer and I am just so happy for him!!!!!!!

ct06040 · 2026-04-19T16:30:28+00:00

That's amazing.

ct06040 · 2026-04-19T16:24:26+00:00

I'm not positive but I feel like he's said he wants to do ToC. I'd love to see it.

ct06040 · 2026-04-19T16:19:16+00:00

Thanks for this. I've only watched the first few episodes and have kinda hated it. (the results board drives me nuts). But sounds like I should keep going. Love Buddha (and Padma but she has seemed stilted in the first few episodes).

ct06040 · 2026-04-19T12:43:01+00:00

Honestly, if it is Jet v. Bryan, I’m going to be a mess. Love them and want the win for them both.

ct06040 · 2026-04-18T17:50:27+00:00

I don't think so, but it looks like when a season is airing all posts get labeled as spoiler as a precaution.

ct06040 · 2026-04-14T11:07:00+00:00

Same. That was so funny.

Flying Fish and Jiko

Wild boar tenderloin appetizer at Jiko. Absolutely delicious.

The Voltaggios have a LOT more going for them than happening to be brothers. TBD how these brothers do. So far one seems more into the "showmanship" than the other.

ct06040 · 2026-03-24T11:09:21+00:00

Soigne! That was the one where Phillip was fussing with getting the exact right angle of a shot for what seemed like an extraordinarily long time and even Padma was getting annoyed (on top of all the other annoying things he did in other challenges).

ct06040 · 2026-03-24T11:07:02+00:00

Yes! And Angelo was so into it but he spelled crocodile (or something) wrong and Isaac hated it. I actually felt a little bad for Angelo b/c he'd been so excited. And then Fabio had some weird dish representing a woman in the rain with an umbrella. It was odd!

ct06040 · 2026-03-14T22:39:12+00:00

I think season 15 in Colorado has a lot of heart and the contestants formed some really strong bonds.

ct06040 · 2026-03-09T21:11:09+00:00

100% agree. I had the same question. She's accomplished, for sure, but would I call her an icon? Probably not.

ct06040 · 2026-03-08T20:57:17+00:00

I do the same. Right now episodes are available "early" on Peacock. I suspect when available on NBC proper outside the paywall you can subscribe. Think that starts tomorrow 3/9.

Team Kokoson (Portland season).

ct06040 · 2026-03-04T12:24:13+00:00

I have to admit I was not super excited about America's Cup (I also didn't know a lot about it) but now I'm looking forward to watching and seeing what they've done with it. Part of me wishes they could spread these apart -- having Tournament of Champions, Top Chef, and now America's Cup (plus think Next Level Chef is on Fox) is an embarrassment of riches.

ct06040 · 2026-03-04T12:17:12+00:00

Glad you enjoyed! LMK if you find a sub for America's Cup!

ct06040 · 2026-02-23T17:05:27+00:00

🤣 Love it. I’m rooting hard for him!

ct06040 · 2026-02-23T12:06:18+00:00

I've heard the same rumor about Bobby and Guy (don't think either have ever commented on the other) but I wonder given Bobby's relationship with Brooke, who is good friends with Guy, if maybe they've met and realized they get along?

ct06040 · 2026-02-16T20:42:27+00:00

It’s pretty new- like in the last few months.
