I bet he guest stars on House real soon!

All kidding aside I find him the most likable person on the show.

NJ used to have a "Cafe Coronary" law - each restaurant was required to have someone trained in CPR. I do not know if it is still in effect. it was how I first learned CPR, many years ago......

I think I would fake choking just to get him to squeeze me. Why are bald men so good loooking?

It's a curse, Megan.

So, last night, who do you eliminate? Someone who does nothing or someone who screws up everything they did?

I think they got it right, but there really wasnt a wrong call.

Bye bye Radhika! She had grown on me over the course of the show, but it seems like she just COMPLETELY shut down for this challenge. She could not lead at all. She didn't have her hand in the food at all really other than the concept of the place, and she was a horrible hostess as well. Based on the parameters of this challenge, I agree that she was the right choice to go home.

They could have flipped a coin. Either could have gone. Stephan is going to be tough to beat in the end.

Winning the whole thing based on desserts- there is a lesson in there somewhere. The prize was spectacular I thought.
I think the right one was released, I think it is clear neither was going to be in the last three.

This was an episode when 2 people could easily have been eliminated based on performance, or lack thereof.

Fortunately for Carla, Radikha was simply worse at her job.

And of course a chef could win based on pastry. duh!

Really 3 of them. Leah better be thanking the Euros for saving her. If either of them had just been ok, she would have been gone.

Hey, lets serve undercooked fish, what could go wrong?

Is there anyone who finds this Leah - Hosea thing remotely interesting. I can barely stomach it myself. I thought it was interesting that Hosea said he had a girlfriend at home. The operative word here is "had" cause I'm sure she's gone!

Leah, that is what I meant. One day I will learn to use the damn emoticons where appropriate.

Too many Leahs in the above.

I am in no way associated with Hosea.

I'm sure I got that emoticon correct. LOL. Thanks whichever Leah you might be.
