I also love an episode ofTop Chefin which the chefs are experiencing new challenges together.
Door County Fish Boil had broth contentandchef-creativity content, which made for a pretty solid episode.
(Heressome moreabout the tavern tradition.)
There was nothing else to do with Wagyu ribeye than turn it intoI Think You Should Leavessloppy steaks?
Tim Robinson, what have you wrought?
All dishes get sorted into high and low categories; theres no hiding in the middle anymore.
Everyone else is on the least favorite side of things.
Kristen says Mannys Wagyu-ribeye aguachile had too much acid and they couldnt taste the meat.
He is taking itsoseriously, I dont think he ever takes off his sunglasses.
(I am not sure he actually got to eat the fish boils?
He should have been on the judging panel!)
But I think this is a great Elimination for how it equalizes the chefs.
Most everyone is focused on making a flavorful broth so their fish is well-seasoned.
Its a very up-and-down service, with three clear standouts.
But where theres good, there must also be … not so good.
Start with 16 chefs, its really fine.
Assorted amuse-bouche
Tom hat watch: The beach was such a perfect opportunity.
I simply could not do this; the threat of getting sand in your food is too high!
The dishes I most wanted to eat this episode: Savannahs corned-beef salad and Dans fish boil.
Gails mushroom-patterned blouse: I want it.
I must find it.
Dont get gout, Manny!
We need you healthy!
(Remember whenKyle Kinane had gout?
We need him healthy, too!)
Justin getting Danny a bath bomb and himself a candle using the Quickfires $500 budget was hilarious.
LAST CHANCE KITCHENSPOILERS AHEAD:Its finale time, and its a two-parter.
He could hang out with Frog and Toad!
