The Top Chef audition video
Here's Jill Snyder's audition video for Top Chef in case you missed it. It's quite entertaining; you can see why she won her spot on the show. I don't know the woman, but I'd rather watch her than Rachael Ray any day. ...
I hear the premiere viewing party at the Red Maple, where Jill is executive chef, didn't go as well as hoped because the cable went out about 10 minutes before showtime. Bummer.
However, Grand Central nearby seems to have picked up the slack, and about half the guests went there to watch. The rest stayed at Red Maple and partied.

I missed the show, how did she do, did she survive the first cut?

She survived but I didn't see her cook anything. I saw the beginning and the end. At the end they liked what she cooked. At the beginning I think she came in last in the apple peeling and dicing competition. Oh the shame.
On the video:
- She seemed much more appealing than the severe-looking publicity shot I saw.
- Oh what a sweet young woman with a winning smile as she CUTS THE FACE OFF A LIVING CREATURE! Ahhh..... I wouldn't mess with her.
- Her kitchen at Red Maple looks about as big as the galley on a tugboat. Job requirement: low Quetelet index.
And now we know that the home of Rolling Rock beer is pronounced LAY-trobe not LAH-trobe. There's a good grapes in jello moment for the future.

Actually, Latrobe is the former home of Rolling Rock. Another smaller brewery bit the dust. It is now "brewed" by Anheuser Busch.

Cosmo Girl (lets forget about old names) wrote "Actually, Latrobe is the former home of Rolling Rock. Another smaller brewery bit the dust. It is now "brewed" by Anheuser Busch."
And it comes in full-size bottles now. I used to order the little "ponies."
