Top Chef - Chicago

I am so thankful that I finally watched the show and avoided all communication regarding last week's episode until I was able to watch yesterday. Now I know, the couple has been split up!



Zoi is going home and Jenn was not happy to see her beloved go!

The episode started with a guest chef (someone else I did not know) and the QuickFire challenge. This challenge was to test the cheftestants pallets. Everyone had to be blindfolded and then tested on which item was the more expensive or "fine" of the two. Antonia won the challenge and was granted immunity for the Elimination Challenge. The Elimination Challenge broke up the group into small groups of three. Each threesome had a different element (fire, water, air and earth) that they used to base their plate on for a group of eighty. Fire won the challenge (Dale, Stephanie and Lisa) and Lisa won overall. Just to add my thoughts here, Lisa is a bitch. She complains, yells and bitches about everything and yet she won. Not fair! Not Fair! not that I wanted to see Dale win (he is an asshole) but Lisa was just unpleasant and someone please tell her to wash her hair at some point, please!


Anyway....the bottom two teams were water (shockingly Andrew, Richard and Mark) and earth (Spike, Zoi and Antonia). The elimination was not pleasant with Spike blaming Antonia and Zoi basically not saying anything. In the end Zoi went home for lack of seasoning and after the fact there was plenty of drama in the holding room. Jenn yelled at Spike and clung to Zoi, Dale finally let loose on Lisa, which of course Lisa did not take lying down. Jenn even threw a chair at one point. Very exciting!

So on to next week and I must say, does anyone think that poached salmon sounds good?
