Top Chef stories and Food & Wine Giveaway!

Do you ever watch Bravo’s Top Chef? I love cooking competitions, although sometimes they dress me out- right before bed and leave me with dreams about making salted caramel cookies under extreme pressure.

Content and/or other value provided by our partner, Bravo.

Last nights episode was one of the most creatively challenging- since they wrapped all of the ingredients in aluminum foil, and the contestants were told that if they opened the foil, then whatever is on the inside would have to be one of their ingredients. As if that wasn’t hard enough, the folks decided that the contestants would also have to cook their dishes in foil. It was like camp cooking under pressure. I won’t give away too much of the show, but I will tell you that there was a cake involved, (which totally impressed me).

Speaking of giveaways…. the nice folks at Bravo and Food and Wine have offered to give one of y’all (yes, you!) a free years subscription to Food and Wine magazine. It’s their way of saying happy holidays & thank you for watching their show.
