This week on a
Thanksgiving episode of
Top Chef, the Foo Fighters made
a special appearance and award-winning chef and cancer survivor,
Grant Achatz, was the guest judge. To discuss the episode (warning: spoilers ahead), .
- Grant Achatz: kind of a hottie?
- Watching the start of the quickfire, did you want the Top Chef cookbook?

Yesterday I spoke to Jill Snyder, the latest cheftestant to pack her knives and leave
Top Chef. Jill's a chef in Baltimore, MD, where she enjoys making desserts and crab cakes. She wishes she would have defended her dish better, but claims that with the cameras staring at her, she choked up.

Season 5 of
Top Chef is off to an exciting start! While we already
discussed the gory details, I want to see how well you were paying attention. With 17 chefs it was hard for me to distinguish one from the other!

The fifth season of the hit show
Top Chef got off to an exciting start. One of the cheftestants was eliminated before the competition officially started and another cut his finger while peeling apples.
Jean-Georges guest judged the New York City neighborhood-centric challenge.
"Do I think it's pretty? No." The simple, but deep cutting words of one of our favorite
Project Runway judges, Michael Kors — gotta love it.

All season I've been asking if you pay attention to
Top Chef. Each week I expect you to score well on our quizzes, and this week is no exception. So did you check out last night's reunion special?

Well folks with last night's reunion show, the fourth season of
Top Chef has finally come to a close. What did you think of the reunion? Check out all of my questions and thoughts, and let us know what you thought of the special, as well as the whole season!

Missing
Top Chef already? Don't worry: Starting June 21 the show is coming to a town near you with
Top Chef: The Tour. This morning
Bravo announced the 20 dates and cities of the tour.

Love her or hate her — and I have a feeling I know where most of you stand on this one — Lisa Fernandes is a passionate chef. She showed that her fiery personality and kitchen skills could put her on the path to becoming a
Top Chef. Unfortunately for her, she fell just short and had to settle for a runner-up prize.
