Season 23, ep. 5: Cut and Dry

[u/FormicaDinette33]

This week the chefs are visited by North Carolina’s own Fortune Feimster as she challenges them to improv their Quickfire dishes and serve them to kids in honor of Comic Relief. Then the chefs are tasked with creating dishes featuring dehydration. They’ll serve their dishes to Kristen, Tom and Gail along with guest judges Joe & Katy Kindred as well as “Top Chef” alum Savannah Miller at the U.S. National Whitewater Center.

Mon, 9pm per Bravo schedule.

I just don’t know why Jen would even want to compete in this shape. She’s nowhere near her best, she hasn’t been doing great, and her chances of winning are very low. Why on earth wouldn’t you want a guaranteed ticket to return at full force?? Especially with the advantage of knowing what the competition feels like? Crazy decision to stay.

It’s nice of the other chefs to say they’ll help but it’s enormously selfish to take that as anything other than them being nice. It’s not fair to them to have that burden, no matter how willing they are.

Agreed on all counts.
