Let's Dish: Top Chef 4.5 — Out of Their Elements

So what did you think of the latest episode of Top Chef? Were you — based on the commercials and previews — expecting a bit more drama? I was. Yet, it was still a fun episode, and interesting to see chefs who had been so successful make mistakes. I've got a bunch of thoughts on the episode and would love to hear what you thought of it all, so let's dish! Just, read more.

1. Is anyone else loving Ming Tsai's slightly retro hairstyle?
2. I liked the high-end/low-end twist on the blind taste test, how about you? Also, how do you think you'd have done?
3. Richard mentioned that his charm was wearing off on Chef Tom. How about you? Has he charmed you at all?
4. Would you have rather worked with Lisa or Spike?
5. Which element would you want to cook? And what would you serve?
6. Did you think it was weird for Andrew to serve up the faux tapioca caviar for the second week in a row?
7. Let's hear it for the Bravo editing team. Up until they served the food, I actually thought Lisa was going home!
8. And now let's boo them. Where was all that drama they promised us?
9. Did you think Zoi deserved to go home? How do you think her departure will affect Jen?
10. And finally, who are you rooting for?
