Top Chef Season 7
Eric Ripert judging = I'm in!
Angelo looks strong, but seems like another cocky chef.
I'm not sorry they sent away the chef they did...pretty scary looking!

I agree on all accounts. The chef who got the axe reminded me of a male Carla. Tall, long face, buggy eyes, and odd outlook on life. It would have been fun to see him, I think.

This episode was dominated by Kenny and Angelo... definitely early ones to watch.
Is this show like Hell's Kitchen?... let's see... trying to come up with a FT analogy... If Hell's Kitchen is Delta Economy Class... Top Chef is Cathay First Class

Angelo is so cocky, I hope he lands in the bottom next week just to give him some humble pie.

Hell's Kitchen is a cooking school actually. They take people with some culinary background and try to put them into situations where they run different stations in a kitchen and even run the kitchen. For instance, they will have people who have never cooked on a line before. Putting that person in a situation where they are expected to keep up with that is setting them up for failure...and a lot of Gordon Ramsay screaming.
Top Chef gets people who have some accolades and get them to compete against one another.

S1: Harold won the first challenge. He won the season
S2: Illan won the first challenge. He won the season (although an unpopular winner)
S3: Tre won the first challenge. Although a strong contender, Tre was eliminated in a tough restaurant-wars episode. Hung won the season, and was also featured as a tough competitor in the first episode.
S4: Stephanie won the first challenge and won the season.
S5: Stefan won the first challenge and was the heavy favorite to win the finale, but lost to Hosea.
S6: Kevin won the first challenge and lost in the finale to Michael.
The skills of the competitors in this season seem a step below Season 6. Should still be entertaining though.

bravotv.com will have it a week after it airs, but there are lots of other places to find it before that. I usually find everything through yidio the day after.
