Wasn’t Carla in two seasons? I thought she went pretty far once. Anyway, I see Carla in so much media, I wonder if Top Chef worked out better for her than the actual winner.
I don’t remember her being in any other seasons
She was in two seasons - Season 5, where she was 1st runner up (along with Stefan Richter as 2nd runner up) and Season 8, the All-Stars, where she came in 5th place.
Not that Carla. The loud mouth Carla who was married to the guy from Rao’s. She was in season 10 Seattle for about 3 episodes
I had honestly forgotten about her. LOL Yeah, she went out pretty quickly at #15 out of 18 in that season.
Yep. She was a handfull!
I don’t remember which season it was, but my favorite Bourdain TC memory was him calling Marcel’s dessert a perfect s*storm of fking awfulness
Welcome! Love your handle. Are you a Donovan fan?
I always associated that with the Allman Brothers’ “Mountain Jam.”
Hmm. We’ll see what mountain had in mind,
So, after re-watching season14 I remembered that there is something about Brooke that rubs me the wrong way. I’m not sure what, but I remember feeling that way when I watched it the first time and nothing has changed.
For me, it’s not that she rubs me; it’s not something she does, it’s more like something she DOESN’T do. I think she doesn’t make me feel interested or engaged.
Maybe that’s it. But I also feel like she feels entitled to win. I don’t know, but at least she won’t be a chef testa this again.
I’m watching Season 1 again. It’s good.
Oh come.
When will the next season BE here???
Oh, how annoying was that wine guy, whose name escapes me right now? Next season won’t be until spring
Stephen Asprinio. Irritating as shit.
How could I forget?
… and not the least bit arrogant.
Season 3 is not bad. CJ, Hung, and Jennifer, not to mention Melarchy, Dale Levitsjy, Sarah Mair, and Tre !
I like that one. I’m on 15 now. Good food, no drama. Bears.
