Top Chef? Save to MyRecipes
by ChefMod on Tue Nov 03, 2009 6:12 pm
I know FoodTV isn't popular around here, but I haven't seen much re: Top Chef. Self-described foodies seem to like it, but I was wondering how working chefs feel. I always thought they chose chefs based on their TV presence or drama potential in lieu of raw talent, but once in a while I see a chef that's a bit more convincing (like the pair that trained under Charlie Palmer). Still, I'm not a chef and can't help feeling like we're getting duped. What are your thoughts?

I would say if you enjoy it for what it is, then do just that.
But of course it is pushed for drama, and edited for drama and the people selected are selected for potential for drama.
Like anything else as long as you don't think it's real have fun.

You will be always victorious if you will never enter into any contest where the issue does not wholly depend upon yourself.
