Top Chef Las Vegas Episode 6 Recap

Hi gang!

Not much to say about this week. It was, in a word, boring. Well, at least a little.

The Quick Fire saw a surprise winner, Robin! The cheftestants had to comprise an angel/devil dish with the same ingredient. Robin's dish impressed the judges with it simplicity. Here's the rub and it apparently rubbed Eli the wrong way. In explaining her dish, Robin mentioned that she is a cancer survivor. Eli complained, no whined, that Robin won because she mentioned this fact. That was completely unfair and put Eli in the crybaby category in my book. Uncalled for. Not classy at all. Bad boy Eli!

The Elimination Challenge had the chefs deconstructing classic dishes. Now, I don't get the whole deconstructing thing. Can someone explain it to me? I don't know what is acceptable and what isn't. The funny part of this challenge was that Mike I, the legend in his own mind, got eggs Florentine and didn't know what that was. In the end, the new love of my life, Jen, won with her deconstructed lasagna. Way to go Jen!
