Yesterday, to kick off New York's Restaurant Week, Bravo TV hosted a cook-off pitting season 2 crowd-favorite Sam Talbot against season 2 winner Ilan Hall. I was really hoping that Sam would show everyone that the wrong winner was chosen, but as it turns out, Ilan won the cook-off with a softshell crab dish. His winning dish, which beat out a quail entrée from Sam, will be tentatively added to some of the top restaurants' menu during restaurant week.
Also present at the event were Top Chef judges Tom Colicchio, Padma Lakshmi and the cast of Season 3 (which starts tonight!).

5Sam got hotter, partysugar. Must be the new 'do.
Also, I hate to admit that Ilan's dish sounded better. I love softshell crabs, but I can't stand Ilan.
What's up with his glasses, too? Nitpicky, yes, but they look weird.

10I can't wait for tonight's episode. Re-watching the 4 Star All-Stars comp. again. Who think's it was a tad early to have this competition? I guess I won't complain too much because it was for charity.
