Nope, there was nothing glorious about the show. No Padmalakshmi, no Tom Colicchio. It was a gimmicky spinoff of the real thing. Well known chef-owners of pocket pinching establishments take each other on to win donations for their favourite charity. No drama, no tension, all very good humoured. Bah! Even the judges were lame - obviously they weren't going to trash the plates served to them by celebrity chefs. So instead they had ludicrous stunts like making dessert for girl scouts and cooking in a dorm room. What a letdown.
There was a moment i smiled to myself though. Hard-as-nails NYC food critic, Gael Greene, said 'cinnamom' on national television. Tee hee.
