Top Chef Chicago, episode 2

Woo hoo,



Stephanie and Valerie know each other from before, everyone knows each other this season. Lesbians switching shoes, where is the kiwi?



Quickfire challenge: create an entree from the Chicago Greenmarket only using five items



That douche richard is buying eucalyptus. you know because he's different. I hate him.

Mark the kiwi keeps on saying mate and he lost his lettuce. Sigh, he's dumb and precious.

Hey Wylie Dufrene is the guest judge, oh snap, Richard just creamed himself. "Our food is in the same genre of food" Fucktwat. Richard you are no Wylie Dufrene. Next week i'm taking a shot everytime douche king says Molecular gastronomy. I'm going to be wasted.

Richard: Chicken soup with apples chickens and eucalyptus. Wylie doesn't seemed impressed

Ryan: Lettuce radishes potatoes, sirloin steak dijon mustard Wylie likes

Dale: Mushrooms shallots radishes eggs butter Wylie likes

Valerie Rib eye steak peaches sweet potatoese tomatoes arugula Wylie likes (he seems to like everything)

Spike: Tenderloin tips apples bread aple cider rosemary

Erik: Lamb chop baby carrots potatoes mint garlic

Mark: Sirloin, turnips mushrooms peaches butter (Wylie compliments him on his sideburns)

Andrew: Lamp chops peaches onions mint potatoes balsamic



Bottom: Spike, Erik, Richard, NICE, called richards dish oily HAHAHAHAHA - you know what, like just because you carry around a mini smoker doesn't mean that you can make some greasy ass chicken. I hate you richard i hate you so much

Likes: Valerie, Ryan and Mark

Mark wins, both the quickfire and my heart



Elimination Challenge: Catering a zoo party, they have to base their food on the diet of the animal that they chose when they drew knives:

team vulture: the diet of a vulture is tiny fish, lamb and rabbits, mark says it's similar to his diet. I swoon some more

Team Gorilla: Vegetarian, they are going to add some meat to this one

Lion: Beef Bison Chicken Beans, Richard wants to sous vide some chicken. i want to punch him in the face

Penguin (I root for this team because i love penguins): herring anchovies scallops basically lots of fish

Bear: Honeycombs and Cheese, sigh whatever, fish

Team Gorilla: Lamb and edamme lettuce cups, banana bread crab salad on a celery root chip black olive blinis with mascarpone
They are doing the blinis before hand, which sounds like a bad idea

Team Lion: Bison Tartar Beat salad with goat cheese foam chicken sate Prime rib with horseradish foam

Team Bear: Venison Loin with Squash, Seared Salmon Stuffed Mushroom Cheese and honeycomb

Team Penguin: Thai Shrimp and crab salad, Roasted zucchini, squid ceviche, yuzu and mint glacier

Let me take this oppurtunity to say that I think Andrew is either some kind of crazy, or on some kind of awesome drug.

Team Vulture: Braised chicken on tostada chip, moroccan lamb meatball ancovy on quinoa croquette
Uh Oh. .

Team Bears mushrooms look like shit, Team Gorillas chips are soggy problems. . .

They decided to go with just the crab salad, no celery root chips.

Team Bear decides not to go with the mushrooms

Richard has beets with ras al hanout, can you find a new spice mix, please please thanks.

Okay the judges ask what happened to the mushrooms and niki's served it anyway, because she's an idiot, wylie just made fun of her

Best teams: Penguin and Vulture, Wylie loved the squid dish, Andrew won, which i'm down with i like his insane ass.

Worst teams: Gorilla and Bear: Worst dishes crab salad, blinis and mushrooms, um Niki's an idiot.

They send Valerie home, I think they get some people who suck so they know who they are sending home.

Next week: Chefs run and chefs cry
