Sooooooo. Mr. Top Chef #1 has finally made his claim on the NY eating scene. Yes, I was a Tiffani fan to the end, but I did heart Harold like the rest of you. I think it’s fantastic that he opened a small space with a friend instead of trying to bank on his TV-fabulocity and rack up investors for something glammy. I think he’s a real cook, and that’s a high compliment. Looking forward to the reviews….
But here we go again, the next season starts in a little less than a month. And once again, I KNOW one of the contestants! (clearly I am such a special, special little sycophant)
Chef Brian is the Exec Chef of the San Diego outpost of our own Oceanaire Seafood Room. He absolutely rocks. He disappeared in March, all hush-hush like, and soon enough the news leaked out.
The cast seems stacked with serious pros this year, but I’m here to tell you, he’s got a shot. He’s totally charismatic, a reeeally good cook (I can still picture one of his angry lobster dishes that killed me: the bug looked like it was going to reach up and hug you), and he’s easy on the eyes. I just hope the edit guys don’t kill his fun and crazy personality. I guess we’ll stay tuned….
