![]() ![]() Then again, maybe this is nature’s way of keeping the human animal in line, keeping the battles between the sexes a little more even-handed (considering men think men run the world, whereas women know women do) Trees Source: Men might be super proud of their nether regions, erecting statues to their beloved leaders that are winking nods toward their members, but when Mother Nature takes control, things in nature that look like a penis aren’t quite as artful.Ī naked man looks a lot like a poorly decorated Christmas tree, with weird things dangling where they don’t look like they ought to. Sadly, Jeremy is given walking papers, while Stefan lives on another week.It’s commonly accepted wisdom that the female form is glorious, true beauty and a gorgeous thing to behold. ![]() On the chopping block: Team Red, for Stefan’s tough quail breasts, and Grey, for Jeremy’s overcooked halibut. The judges love Kuniko’s chili oil-poached cod, giving her and her team a victory, and eliciting the quote of the night: “Oh my gosh, this is going to make everybody, like, ‘Who is she? We didn’t notice she even was there.’” Yellow Team serves pan roasted cod with mushrooms, fava beans, pickled green apple and garlic scape pistou. Green Team offers crispy seared Pacific salmon with local vegetables and a spot prawn butter sauce. Grey Team has pan roasted halibut, morel mushrooms, English peas served over wheat beer (!) with herb sabayon. Team Red serves quail breast with confit spot prawn, cherries and porcini. Then Carla slices her hand on a knife and starts screaming again. After a lot of screaming, Carla lowers her voice long enough to present Team Orange’s poached salmon with seasonal vegetables and beurre blanc. Great story, Tom!īlue Team serves first a chili oil poached cod with dashi and spot prawn shabu shabu. Tom tells the story of when he almost moved to Seattle but then didn’t. Q&A: Tom Colicchio on Keeping ‘Top Chef’ Fresh, His ‘Treme’ Arc and Why He Was Cut From the ‘Sex and the City’ PilotĪnd here are the judges: Tom Colicchio, Gail Simmons, Padma, Emeril Lagasse (who feels a little out of place on this panel) and Seattle restaurateur Tom Douglas. The next day, CJ tells a story about the Space Needle (something about potatoes?) and it really begins to sink in that these three are back for the whole season. Josie explains to everyone how she’s back to win, while everyone else - including the audience - is wondering what she’s doing there in the first place. They’re off to the condominium to get acquainted, where someone assumes Jeffrey Jew is straight because he’s engaged (it’s to a man). The elimination challenge is similarly open-ended: The teams must cook a meal from local ingredients - a seafood-heavy selection - served at the top of the most recognizable Seattle landmark, the Space Needle. That’s right - they’ve been brought back as contestants. The twist not surprisingly ticks everyone off, especially Denver chef Tyler Wiard. Then something truly shocking happens: Padma announced that CJ, Josie and Stefan are there to compete for the title. ![]() John pulls the winning knife and is granted immunity. Team Yellow lands on the bottom, and Team Blue - John, Kuniko and Hawaiian chef Sheldon Simeon - win the challenge. And Team Yellow has a razor clam and grilled corn chowder with fresno chili and grilled lime. Team Blue serves geoduck sashimi with ponzu, apple and cucumber. Team Green offers fried and sashimi geoduck, radish and bok choy salad with yuzu chili vinaigrette. Team Orange plates oven roasted crawfish with fennel and herb salad. Team Gray makes crawfish with pickled red chili, fennel and crawfish cream. Not sure who invented the $85, overly complicated salad though. If you’ve ever wondered what three women with different accents speaking simultaneously for 20 minutes sounds like, thanks to Team Orange now you know. Breakout Belgian Bart Vandaele says his people have a leg up on other cultures because they steal cooking ideas from every nation who’s ever conquered them (fries from the France, waffles from Germans, etc.). The very loud, very dramatic Carla Pellegrino is on Team Orange, and says she wants “to be a James Beard and I wanna have a nice ass.” She should move to Hollywood! There’s always room for a beard with a pilates body there.Ĭooking begins. Oklahoma City boy Joshua Valentine is crestfallen at not getting his hands on the giant, phallic mollusk. A big one.” Team Yellow also wants geoduck - it tastes good raw, saving cooking time - but after some gross digging around in a pile of muck, decide instead on razor clams, which they’ll put in a chowder. Team Green chooses geoduck (pronounced “gooey-duck”), which model-turned-chef Kristen Kish says “is great except it looks like a penis.
