Top Chef Las Vegas Finale Recap
 |
Heads up everybody: I wrote a recap of the Top Chef Las Vegas finale for Serious Eats! If you watched the show, head on over and check it out. Were you surprised by the winner, or did you think this was the most predictable season ever? One thing’s for sure, I don’t want to see any more siblings on Top Chef 7. Hey Bravo, let’s keep the awkward family drama where it belongs – around the kitchen table on Thanksgiving.

Yikes that’s a creepy face! Not surprised and ditto on the family affair, 1 time is enough.
Jill that was a freaking hilarious recap. There were more zingy one liners in there than an entire episode of Talk Soup. I think you should recap the show here next season!
“And just like that, Kevin’s dreams went crashing to the floor faster than Whitney Houston’s career after marrying Bobby Brown.”
That could be one of the funniest things I’ve ever read on the internet.
I agree. No more siblings or relatives on Top Chef. I always hate when they do that on reality TV shows. And the talent was just way too unbalanced this year. It was predictable. Everyone knew who the final four would be after the premiere episode.
Nice job on that recap! I laughed out loud like 5 times. It’s a really different (more nit picky? more serious!) crowd at Serious Eats and I think you nailed it. It made enduring last nights boring finale worth it for me!
I freakin’ died when you wrote that the chefs looked more clueless than the Backstreet Boys in a room full of instruments. LOL!!!
You had me with the reference to robot Vicki from Small Wonder. I loved that show as a kid!
Jillian, ya done us proud. That was a tremendously funny recap of a tremendously boring season finale. Brava!
I think any of the last 4 could have won it easy. I agree Micheal is a butthead. He can cook!!! No one IMO was as bad as hung, I hated to see him win
Wonderful and hilarious write up on SE! Brava!
As for Top Chef–I’m almost ready to be done with this cavalcade of crap. Michael Revoltin’ is one of the worst examples of a professional chef. His abominable treatment of his own brother and other contestants was quite telling. Did he make some great food? Here and there, sure. A lot of it was contrived and prissy. Kevin certainly won over our hearts with his earthy, ‘menschy’ food and personality. Bryan became the sane brother and his food was pretty damned good as well.
God, are we finally done with bringing back eliminated chefs that only serve to humiliate themselves further and F up the finalists pressure packed final dinner?!? This happens every season without fail. What purpose does this serve except to screw with the chefs even more? Remember Carla and Casey? Blarg!
Great job on SE, Jillian. The comments were hysterical :)
I really loved the recap. Those pop culture references made it freakin funny as hell. I just saw there’s some stupid woman in the comments section there whining and complaining that you “insulted Britney Spears and the Backstreet Boys.” She wanted you to “have respect for them.” But what do you expect from a blog called SERIOUS eats right!
I do have respect for the Backstreet Boys and Britney! I have respect for how untalented they are, and how they managed to get so rich by being so awful!
Ah, a predictable finale. Actually, a completely predictable season. Bravo should change its tagline to, “Cliche, cliche… cliche.”
Oh good gawd. Did he HAVE to be an obvious dick for the show or is that the Michael reality?
I think I might wander into his restaurant and order a Hot Pocket and red wine. Yep, think Im gonna have to goof on this arrogant hole.
When Kevin pulled those two sous chefs I actually said, to the computer I was watching it on, ‘Oh, Kevin, I’m so sorry.’
I’m late to the party here, but as always, Jillian, this was hilarious, and I’m glad you got to do that over on Serious Eats. That photo of half-Bryan/half-Michael is truly disturbing, though….
Maybe Michael can spend some of the prize money on some much needed orthodonture. Yeesh! It’s a wonder her can chew.
Great recap. Hilarious.
That poster is just like the scene in “Coraline” were the pink & green other Miss Forcible & Miss Spink attack Coraline.
