[veg_grp] Last Nights Top Chef

[Guest guest]

I was really disappointed with the episode. There wasn't one dish where I felt

compelled to download the recipe. Robin's dish may have looked beautiful, but

no one, including Natalie, liked it very much. Not only did Robin not win, but

she was in the bottom three and could have been sent home for that dish. I wish

the challenge had been to create a vegetarian dish that included at least one

grain or one legume. Most of the chefs focused on vegetables only.

 

On the other hand, I loved the Top Chef Masters vegan episode which aired a few

months back. The chefs in that competition were established, very accomplished

chefs, and the dishes they put out looked like they rocked. I downloaded many

of those recipes, but I'll probably never make any of the them because they all

seem very complicated. Their cooking is way too sophisticated for me.

[veg_grp] Last Nights Top Chef

 

 

If anyone happened to catch it last night, it was vegetarian. The guest was

Natalie Portman, they had to cook for Natalie and her friends.

Chef Robin Leventhan made a gorgeous dish. She wasn't voted in first place but

what do they know. The judges did the usual smirk about the veg cuisine, one guy

made a comment, this would go good with a steak.

Robin rocks, she tries very hard and I hope she wins or is at least in the top
