I have been addicted since season 1! Hahaha...

I really hope a woman wins it this season. It's about time! Stephanie is really good but she has been making some stupid mistakes and Richard is fierce competition!!

Last weeks steak made my mouth water!!!

    Are you kidding? Top Chef, Iron Chef (American and original Japanese versions!), Next Food Network Star--I love all those shows!! :love:

    I've also learned how to cook so much better by watching them. My husband said that the Food Network is the best thing that has ever happened to our kitchen! I've learned a lot about healthy cooking by watching them, too.

    I want a woman to win this year, too, but don't particularly care for any of the ones that are left :ohwell:

    I LOVE Top Chef! Its so addicting! I drive my family crazy with watching it because they don't get why I would want to watch someone make food, delicious food I might add. But it is so entertaining and interesting!!!

    I am addicting to ALL the cooking shows, especialling Iron Chef America. I haven't gotten into Top Chef yet, but I might have to add it to the list. =) My roommate hates me because he says they always make him hungry! =) I secretly am in love with Duff from Ace of Cakes and Bobby Flay. Why can't we have Chefs like that around here....

    I actually write for a blog that covers Top Chef...BloggingTopChef.blogspot.com. We've been going since season 2. I think either Stephani or Antonia should win. They've been the most consistant. We'll see.....:drinker:

    LOVE Top Chef!
    They're really amazing and creative thinkers in the kitchen.

    I love the FoodNetwork as well but their chefs aren't any good...Mario Batalli is the only exception.

    I :heart: Top Chef! I personally liked Dale, he was cocky and I kinda like that in a man but Stephanie (Chicago Love) is in it to win it and she better... I personally want Lisa to kick rocks...

    Also a fan of Richard but we need a woman to win (only feel this way cause Dale left). :laugh:

    And how did Hung win last season?! :grumble: I was so disappointed!

    Never had a crush on Tom, and started to downright distrust him after what he wore to the Bears game. Seriously - does the guy even know what football is? You don't wear designer accessories in front of your jersey.

    This season is amazing because its in my home city CHI TOWN! I love watching and seeing my neighborhood or my favorite restaurants. Its great having that personal connection..I feel famous by association.

    The food always blos my minds. I love how they look at a veggie and make a dish fit for a king.

    Question: How do you think Padma stays so trim?

    OKAY!!! wow!

    First, my hubby is Puerto Rican and his mom was born there so we've been many times and I have been blessed w/ my mil teaching me to make KILLA rice and bean, gondoles too, tostones, pork, my fav is black or bruised plantain fried up...so sweet like candy! :tongue:

    My mouth was watering watching them....and we've been to all the places they were at so it was really a cool show for me!

    NOW...not such a cool ending! I'm sorry I'm not a Lisa fan, she's just not my cup of tea...AND didn't you love Antonia telling Stephanie to kick their butts! woo hoo....as long as Lisa doesn't win I'll be happy...lol is that mean? hmmmm of let me rephrase it let the best chef win....(please let it be Stephanie...Richard even!!! lol...better??:ohwell: )

    hugs!

    Yeah, that food was making my mouth water!!

    I don't like Lisa either..she is just SO negative!! I would be happy with Steph or Richard. I like both of them. I was sad to see Antonia go, but I think she lasted a lot longer than I thought she would considering some of the talent that left before she did.

    I love this show though!!!!
