However, I will admit that when I have gotten attached or disgusted by a chef, I often wind up disappointed or won over, as the caase may be. <BR/><BR/>This season, watching the first episode, I couldn't help feeling like I had seen all of these people before, like they were all plucked off of a checklist to match the requisite demographics and orientations of a successful reality show. Clearly, I'm a little jaded, and I will come to appreaciate these folks for who they are eventually... but if I see another goddamn "faux hawk" hairdo, I'm gonna quit this TV watching business all together.RVA Foodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16214920696412259243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35720139.post-72449916064485833682008-03-13T16:58:00.000-04:002008-03-13T16:58:00.000-04:00i am a HUGE top chef fan - i typically can pick my...i am a HUGE top chef fan - i typically can pick my front runner in the first episode but not this one.in vino veritashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03696446621646451574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35720139.post-25166291104177717032008-03-13T09:57:00.000-04:002008-03-13T09:57:00.000-04:00Sounds like an interesting beverage.
