YOU'RE THE ONE GOING FOR $100,000, YOU TELL ME WHERE THE FISH IS vs. TONIGHT'S MEAL IS ENTIRELY FRESH ISLAND PRODUCE, PLUS A LARGE JAR OF BABY EELS THAT I BROUGHT FROM HOME: Thankfully, no crises or recriminations took center stage to spoil the fun on the finale of Top Chef 2 (leave that to Food & Wine), and the editors still managed to maintain a sense of interpersonal drama. Ilan just had to get in a couple of nasties about Marcel, of course, but it's not like he hit him with a beer bottle or anything.

Hereabouts, watching those two meals go down while munching on a mundane bowl of shells in parmesan pesto created a sad sort of dissonance. To answer Adam's question from the earlier post, a meal prepared by any of this year's contestants would be happily received as long as I didn't have to listen to them rehash the competition while I ate.

With that, the floor is open for further, more specifically-spoileriffic discussion.
