13. can they broadcast it any louder that one of them is going home tonight?
Fabio seems to some talent and Stefan is the villian, so both of them will stay.

25. She would have been safe if she had cooked something.
Edited on Wed Jan-21-09 11:18 PM by VenusRising
She always does fairly well in the kitchen, she should have gone with that.

28. Leah better not sneak through to the final
I would be most disappointed. I still think it's going to be Stefan, Jeff, Jamie and Hosea. I have a feeling Fabio is going to almost but not quite make it, which is a shame; he's by far my favorite of any Top Chef contestant from any season.

30. My Top Chef sighting: Dale (season 4) served me brunch on Sunday
Mrs. AA was going to ask when he was going to open a restuarant, but we didn't get a chance after brunch.
