Top Chef

Gail Simmons knows good food, and good skin, when she sees it. Simmons has made a name for herself as an elite food critic and host of Top Chef: Just Desserts. Now, she has joined the Eucerin Skin First Council, which raises awareness of skin care as an important aspect of overall health.

I got the chance to speak with her about the connection between your eating and your skin, what foods can give you a gorgeous glow without the bronzer, and how to give your diet a beauty boost. To find out all about her skin food secrets, just keep reading.

Bravo had a big night with Top Chef last evening. The reunion show of All-Stars was packed with fun videos, hysterical moments, and even a showdown with Tom and Elia! Then, afterward was the season premiere of the revamped Masters, which the majority of you were planning on watching.

It was pretty exciting: the cheftestants were surprised with Restaurant Wars in the first episode! The quickfire reminded me of Chopped, but I really enjoyed the elimination. I also loved getting to know these chefs — especially the handsome George Mendes who was just named Best New Chef by Food & Wine.

Did you catch them? What did you think of the reunion? And the food on Masters? Let's get a discussion going in the comments!

Who better to cover the last episode of Top Chef All-Stars than former cheftestant (and contender from this season!) Fabio Viviani? Chef, take it away!

It's over!! I mean almost. The finale is here in the sunny Bahamas, I'd rather today to go water-skiing than get picked and help my two brothers (hey, at the end they ARE from a different mother), but I'll do my fair share and talk them into NOT picking me, but I promise that if I will I'll give heart and soul. Richard is worry.

Mike want to beat Richie and start some serious physiological warfare, Mike is hilarious and Richard is so worry that he can't even talk back to him.

I laughed my butt off when Mike said, "I hope you lose" in his face and Richard instead of go for the throat and answer "you know Mike? F*ck you, you foul mouth piece of sh*t you can kiss my ass I will win this and then I'll rub it in your face" type of thing, he all calm and worry said, "I hope you lose too." AAWWW Richie! That is the sweetest mean things I ever heard! You such a good guy!!!

The rest of Fabio's humorous recap is after the jump.

We've got the hilarious Fabio Viviani's recap of the Top Chef All-Stars season finale coming up later today, but now, I want to get your opinion of the show. I found it highly entertaining, and although I assumed Richard Blais was going to win, I couldn't help but root for Mike, the underdog.

The food looked amazing (especially Richard's oyster and Mike's pepperoni sauce!) and it was fun to see the cheftestants come together and work under Richard and Mike. I was bummed that my favorite, Jen Carroll, didn't get kitchen time, but it was nice that Jamie Lauren stepped up to the challenge of helping Mike. Did you watch? What did you think of the outcome?
