Welcome to Top Chef, Not Top Scallop, the world’s greatest Top Chef recap blog. This is a recap of Portland’s Last Chance Kitchen, “Start Your Engines.” Read my recap of last week’s LCK here and the latest Top Chef episode here. You can watch the latest LCK
Yeah, I kind of thought Chris might be skating by a little and Sara probably didn't deserve to go so early ... but I did NOT care for that little dig. What I DID care for was Tom's BLATANT product placement and his ham-handed way of telling us how great it was to drive that BMW. I cracked up every time, and Blais' SUPER URGENT countdown warnings were amazing. This episode was high camp and I loved it, and I loved your review.
Another fantastic entry! Sadly Sara lost a few fans with her demeanor in LCK. She hasn't exactly been gracious in defeat or victory. I'm still rooting for her though, I want to see that Shota reunion. Sara will be hard to take down one-on-one.
Agree with the comments about Sara's dig at Chris. I thought this LCK was hilarious. Wouldn't the biggest time sink be Tom driving back to the kitchen? Is the BMW race track right next to LCK or something. I've driven around Portland and I was always taking a bridge over a river. Too bad they had this BMW product placement, the challenge totally should have been pasta.

100% agree about Sara's dig at Chris, it was completely unwarranted and untrue.
