Dale was inconsistent, but inspirational. Amidst some mediocrity he came out with some absolutely stunning dishes and sauses.

Casey could have won as well, but obviously executed this final challenge poorly. She's a wolf in sheeps clothing tho, a very well thought-out subtle but fierce competitor.

And for the second year in a row, the winner is...again.......PADMA!! :heart:

he's good, but he was a definite douchebag.

My pic for Top Chef was Tre.. I think it was BS when he got eliminated, he bascially took the fall for dumb ass baby huey ( howie ). I though he and Hung were the most talented chefs this season.

Hung was the best chef out of the three, but I defiantly get the douchbag comments. If you look at the viewer vote, I believe he finished last as well. He seemed backstabbing, conniving, and had no honor. If you have to resort to that to win a competition *and he didn't have to* maybe you shouldn't win.


I also dont get the infatuation with Padme.. She is moderatly attractive ( by TV standards) and has an annoying voice. I dunno, she just bothers me.

Sure would love a Gail & Casey sammich though :heart:

Casey was only in the top 3 cuz she was a girl. She dodged a bullet a few times because the producers have say in who stays and goes.

That said, I think that Hung was made to look worse than he was. Editing is a magical thing. Notice how close they all seemed towards the end? Its cuz the like Hung and the show was spliced to make him look worse. Sure he was arrogant, but he was damn good.
