Battle of the Monkeys

I can’t believe I haven’t written about Top Chef at all, during their third season. Last night was part one of the finale and next week, it’ll be over until season four.
Believe me, I still watch it every week. But for some reason it is not the same.
Season three has been watchable enough, but just not, well, newsworthy. Everyone gets along, almost all of the chefs had their one or two days in the sun. It’s all a bit bland though. I miss the crazy peeps on season one like Stephen and Dave. I even miss Mikey from season two.
Anyhow, even with the boringness of the third season, where I don’t really even care WHO wins, I still watch and in the long run I guess I want Dave Levitsky to win. Or Hung, or Casey. Any of them. I am totally rooting for the winner, whoever it is!
I am continually blown away by the bloggers at Amuse Biatch. Faced with a blank screen, they come up with brilliance. Brava.
OK then, I’ll shut up. Now check this out.

Oh, man – WHERE did you find that?? It’s hilarious!
As for Top Chef … I may have reached my saturation point with the show this year. Too many inane challenges and slippery rules the judges (aka Tom Colicchio) bend for whoever they want to keep or eliminate. Besides, Dale bugs. 😉

Here I am trying to diet, and I have to pick today to read your post. Now I’m positively seized with an urgent NEED for a croque monsieur. My favorite place for them in all of Paris is Le Petit Zinc in the 6eme arr. It’s perfection itself! When I’m on the other side of the pond, Pastis in New York City serves up some pretty good competition as well.
Thanks for blowing my diet! 🙂
