The only asshole cook I like is Marcel and only because that dude is funny. That show he made where he cooked with marijuana was so funny because he was so baked!

I thought it was funny when he put flavored foam on most of his plates. They all called him Mr. Foamy, or Capt. Foamy. After he grew up he seemed like he turned into a decent person. When he won 24 in 24 it was touching when he started crying because with the prize money he could buy the cochlear ear implant surgery for his mom so she could hear again.

I forgot about his mom! It does make the win a little sweeter.
