Top Chef Just Desserts

I recently acquired both internet and cable at my place and last night was a total television night.

The Lineup:

  • Victorious
  • iCarly
  • Hellcats
  • The Real World
  • Top Chef Just Desserts
  • Top Chef
  • World of Jenks

I was up until 1:30 watching all of this, but anyways this post is designated to the Top Chef spin off. Anyone catch it last night? I love desserts. Sometimes I think I enjoy it more than food because I love how creative you can get with it. It is no doubt also one of the hardest types of food to make because you can’t just “wing it” like you can when cooking other types of food. You need exact ingredients and exact measurements. I thought the show was fantastic though. It follows the same route as its big brother Top Chef in that everyone has a quickfire challenge before the elimination challenge. Whoever wins the quickfire receives immunity. The contestants are such characters! You can already tell that there’s going to be drama with quite a few of them.

My favorite is Zac Young because he puts “disco dust” i.e. edible glitter on his desserts!
