I realize that Top Chef actually ended, like, two weeks ago, but I only watched the finale last week. Turns out Trinity already heard about what happened, so he delayed watching until I demanded to know why he wasn’t itching to watch it.
Watching the episode was agony. Hosea and Stefan were naturally at each other’s throats, bickering over foie gras and caviar. But what really hurt to watch was seeing Casey take Carla down, notch by notch. Oh, try to sous vide the beef, oh, why not a souffle instead of a tart… Carla! Girl, there’s a reason why Casey didn’t win the title of Top Chef. Sigh. And apparently, I’m not the only one who feels kind of, eh….about Hosea winning the season 5 title. If Stefan won, I would’ve been, well, he’s the better all around chef… If Carla had won (although she and everyone else watching knew that was not going to happen with what happened with her meal), I would’ve thought, I like her! And she’s a good cook! But Hosea…? Ughhh. First off, he can’t cook fish even though he keeps saying he can, second, he is so obviously always trying to keep up with Stefan. Third, he’s such a douche bag for what happened with Leah.
Anyway, last week was also the season finale of ABDC.
