This week's second episode of Top Chef Las Vegas saw Eve Aronoff going home. Eve seemed a bit overwhelmed during her short stay on the show. Eve owns a restaurant in Ann Arbor, Michigan called Eve. The choice of restaurant name may be an indicator of Eve's creativity in other areas, like maybe cooking. Eve also has had a cookbook published titled Eve: Contemporary Cuisine, Methode Traditionelle.The Quickfire Challenge this week continued with the Vegas theme. A craps table was rolled into the kitchen. The chefs took turns rolling the dice, the number that came up was the number of ingredients they had to use to prepare a dish. One of the brothers, the younger one, Mike Voltaggio, won the Quickfire, Immunity and $15,000.
For the Elimination Challenge it was the boys against the girls, cooking for a bachelor/bachelorette party. The boys cooked for the bachelorette, and the girls, well, you don't need that spelled out for you.
The future bride and groom brought in trays of shots of three different drinks, like a tequila shot, a sweet one called Golden Delicious. I forget the third.
When the eating began the judges were clearly liking the boy's stuff best, picking both brothers, Hector and last week's winner, Kevin, as the top 4. Though it did not sound like a good thing, older brother, Bryan, won with his Guacamole Macaroon. The judges raved about it, both on the show and in their blogs.
Eve, Preeti, Jesse and Ashley were the worst of the worst. Ashley whined way too much about not wanting to participate in any wedding ritual, due to she being unable to legally marry someone of her own sex. A rude person in Survivor Sucks suggested that Ashley could easily get around this problem by simply saying she was a man and marry the woman of her choice.
I'd like Jesse if she'd lose the lip piercings. The brother rivalry plot line may grow tired, too. It seems as if there are way more really good cooks this time around than we've seen before.
