About this episode
Tom and Sara recap the latest episode of Top Chef, discussing eliminations, culinary pairings, and previewing the season's conclusion.
In this recap, Tom tries not to get salty about the elimination, but he gets peppered with shame anyway. Speaking of salt and pepper, Tom and Sara debate the best duo in the culinary world in an episode full of poor pairings. Sara explains all the ins-and-outs of rabbit cooking while they both wonder who the mystery judges were and why they were presented that way. Sara and Tom discuss whether the customer is always right on a show like Top Chef. Did one of the chefs skate this week? As the show crosses over state lines again to Asheville, NC, Sara and Tom preview the home stretch of the season and peg the favorites as it all winds down. Next week, the snake episode finally is here. Subscribe to the PYK Substack! https://www.packyourknives.com/ Rate PYK 5 Stars on Apple or Spotify, or watch PYK on YouTube!
