1.
Alright here we go...
2.
I know what happened last week but its oddly satisfying to hear Padma remind me. Her voice is kind of like therapy.
3.
I want to go the Food and Wine Classic in Aspen...
4.
Dammit this is the best theme song.
5.
There are literally knife sounds in it. Knife sounds should just be in every theme song.
6.
Okay the before the challenge obligatory house shots...
7.
Why is there always a random contestant doing yoga by themselves?
8.
Oooh the one who should have gone home speaks.
9.
Why are they so surprised about how hard this competition is? Did they expect it to be easy? It's TOP Chef, not Middle Ground Chef.
10.
Quickfire time!
11.
Here's Padma and some badass culinary icon whose name I'm going to forget in two minutes!
12.
God Padma's outfit is so on point.
13.
Seriously why is Padma the most flawless creature to ever exist?
14.
Oh look, someone's not happy about this quickfire because it pushes them out of their comfort zone. Boo Hoo. Should we just call this Top Comfort Zone instead?!
15.
God how is no one getting hurt?! So much scrambling.
16.
I'm just waiting for the day that the medics come in cause someone accidentally takes someone out with a frying pan...
17.
"30 minutes isn't enough time to braise this piece of meat.." THEN WHY ARE YOU BRAISING IT?
18.
UTENSILS DOWN, HANDS UP!!
19.
All this food looks so good...
20.
...Except that thing...that was a terrible idea.
21.
Padma almost seems bored by all of this...this is just everyday life for her.
22.
"I have no idea why I was in the bottom of this quickfire..." bitch they literally just told you why.
23.
Wait, they get immunity and ten grand!? Lucky bastards.
24.
"I'm really sick of ____ being in the top." said about the chef with the most skill. Wow how dare they perform well...
25.
ELMINATION CHALLENGE TIME. MY BODY IS READY.
26.
This show is the only place where being asked to draw knives isn't seen as an incredibly dangerous/illegal request...
27.
Uh oh team challenge...
28.
I imagine this is the equivalency of finding out you have to do a group project...
29.
It is really shocking though how many of these chefs do not play well with others...
30.
Oooh this challenge sounds exciting...
31.
This show is just the best.
32.
Hold up a fancy ass vacation is on the line!
33.
Awww the nice Dilf chef wants to use it to take his family...
34.
Why are there always Dilfs on this show? I'm not complaining...
35.
God every single Whole Foods employee everywhere must loathe Top Chef contestants with a passion.
36.
They get so aggressive with the guys behind the meat and fish counters, geez. At least say please.
37.
"I'm very confident with these flavors and I'm very confident I'm going to be in the top."
38.
Great, we all now know who is going home.
39.
HELL NO THAT PERSON ISN'T USING PRE-MADE PUFF PASTRY.
40.
Do you have a death wish sir?
41.
Is anytime ever enough time for prep time?
42.
Everyone shut up, Tom's here!
43.
Why is Tom wearing his chef coat despite the fact that he is doing no cooking whatsoever?
44.
Tom is so good at casually throwing shade at these people.
45.
Prep time is over! Time for some nice relaxation at home...and no wait everyone is passively aggressively arguing.
46.
"I'll just deal with it in the morning" is a phrase these people need to embrace for their own sanity.
47.
Oh shit, someone's going home today!
48.
Does Padma ever get sick of introducing the judges every single challenge?
49.
Does Gail Simmons even still work for Food and Wine Magazine?
50.
Who are these random event goers and how did they even get here?
51.
Literally my only dream is to be a random Top Chef event goer.
52.
ALL THE FOOD.
53.
Why do so many of these dishes have random foams on it? Does this foam have a purpose?
54.
Ooooh the judges like it...
55.
Oooh the judges hate it....
56.
Tom is throwing so much shade, it's just amazing.
57.
They see right through that store bought puff pastry!!
58.
Who cleans up all this stuff afterwards? That's not a fun gig...
59.
Is the stew room an actual room or is it just a random closet that they put some chairs in?
60.
Well hey, at least they get booze!
61.
I'm surprised more people haven't just gotten wasted at judges table...
62.
Padma walking into the stew room just looking like a ray of light as per usual.
63.
The top seems fair and consists of no dishes with any weird foams!
64.
Aw the winner is so excited!
65.
"I need you to send back a few of your colleagues..." OH SHIT.
66.
God all the judges look so angry.
67.
I would not want to get into a fight with Gail. I feel like she can whoop ass.
68.
Why is everyone always so defensive?! You can't just talk to Tom Colicchio this way!
69.
Getting called out on the store bought puff pastry, I freaking knew it.
70.
Go back to the stew room and think about what you've done, you peasants.
71.
Man I thought the judges were harsh to their faces...I would not want to go to high school with these people...
72.
Que the dramatic music and send for the chefs!
73.
This waiting time could not be any longer...WHO IS PACKING THEIR KNIVES!?
74.
Pack your knives puff pastry. Pack. Your. Knives.
75.
At least Padma says please, she's just so polite.
76.
Awwww everyone looks so sad.
77.
You're really going to hug them after all that shit you talked in your confessional interview?
78.
The knife packing is such a reflective moment of this person's entire career...you still get to be a chef, it's okay.
79.
Aw it's over.
80.
Is it next week yet?
