I sort of feel like the show's jumped the shark, but I guess this is good.

Hell yeah. I haven't watched since the All-Star season, but I will watch this. And look out for them at the Whole Foods on Magazine.

One of the seasons spent a couple weeks in New Orleans.

The fat bald guy won that year.

ETA- It was season 5, Hosea Rosenberg

It has but I still watch it. NOLA chefs have been featured on the show fairly well, but this will bring good pub to the city.

BlackenedOut has had some nice tweets regarding this:
quote:


@BlackenedOut 1h

This week on Top Chef, the cheftestants travel to the Treme to cook a meal inspired by the hit HBO show (guest judge: some Brennan).

Tune in next week, as our cheftestants cook aboard a paddlwheeler (guest judge: some actor in town to shoot on a paddlewheel)

@BlackenedOut 1h

This week on Top Chef: Its Mardi Gras, tune in as Padma wears some Venetian carnival shite to a bal masque (judge: Harry Connick)

?@BlackenedOut 1h

Travel along with the Cheftestants to the Broad St. Whole Foods in their Toyota Prius, which mysteriously disappear from the parking lot.

@BlackenedOut 1h

Next week on Top Chef, the cheftestants and the City Council members pair off for a Food Truck Throwdown (judge: Mayor Mitch)

@BlackenedOut 1h

@moosedenied There is going to be a new Cheftestant Creation at Jimmy John's: caramelized fennel, duck confit, and raisin (on rye).

@BlackenedOut 1h

Restaurant Wars: Top Chef New Orleans will be an actual war between the Cheftestants and the NIMBY's. That should be watchable.

@BlackenedOut 1h

Cant wait for them to interview a cheftestant named Flor or some shite who says, "I went to the Mardi Gras, so I understand this food."

@BlackenedOut 1h

Cannot wait to learn which debutante has her party at F&M's catered by a sous chef from Wisconsin.

@BlackenedOut 1h

This week on Top Chef, the cheftestants ride in Endymion and are forced to make a meal out of whatever is on the float (actually kinda cool)

God, thread title police are out of control. Mine was succinct and to the point. Or, at least so I thought.

Whatever.

I'm pumped. I'm going to do what I can to get into some of the events and see if they are worth a shite

I haven't watched Top Chef since the Voltaggio brothers season.

I think what originally turned me off was that one season with the obnoxious lesbian chef Lisa whose cooking skills were god awful and she made it to the final 3 because she was slightly better than the worst chef and was usually in the bottom 3 each episode. Richard Blais and the Stephanie girl were light years better than that woman.
