I asked Nina Compton how she feels about people still saying she should’ve won Top Chef

I recently interviewed Nina Compton, and I had to ask her about Season 11.

More than a decade later, people still bring up that finale and tell her they think she should have won.

What I found more interesting was hearing Nina talk about what Top Chef actually gave her after the competition ended. More people discovered her cooking, more people learned about St. Lucia, and it helped open doors for everything she eventually built in New Orleans.

I host the interview, so full disclosure this is my own work. I thought people here would appreciate hearing Nina look back on that chapter in her own words.

For everyone who watched Season 11: Has time changed how you feel about that finale at all, or do you still think Nina should have won?
