Back-back-back up, reverse-reverse Cause I – I liked you the way you were Keisha Chante in the house! Drake’s ex-girlfriend is here because she loves mac and cheese and today’s Quickfire Challenge is cooking with Kraft Dinner. Seriously. I’ll never understand why they save these sponsored challenges for the end of the show. Why are......
Here we go with Episode 4 you guys! There’s only two girls left after Sarah’s elimination last week, and Trista and Elizabeth both feel the pressure (very similar to Connie and Andrea last season after Rebekah’s early exit). David is upset he was on the bottom last week, and hasn’t been cooking up to his......
It’s a episode full of pregnant ladies this week, with our Season 1 host Thea back for this episode. She introduces the Quickfire, which is to take a pair of very different ingredients and combine them into one amazing dish, because preggo ladies are known to crave weird combos of food. These pairings are truly heinous,......
And we’re back for Episode 2! Quick thought right off the top – why didn’t the show move production to a new city for the new season like they do on original Top Chef? Think of all the fresh seafood they would have had access to in Halifax, or all the fun challenges they could have done......
I mean did you honestly think after all those Top Chef Canada recaps that I’d go to Calgary without eating at Connie’s restaurant? Danielle and I visited Charcut on the Friday night of my visit, and it was jam-packed. Sometimes trendy restaurants make me nervous, but the hostess was nice and our waiter was very......
Welcome to the finale you guys! Let’s go to the Beach!   For our last Quickfire, Mark and Thea announce that the chefs have 2 hours (taking the Quick out of Quickfire) to create a post-game BBQ for some volleyball players that’s centred around Rickard’s beer – red, white and dark. The winner is the chef with the best main......
And here we are at the penultimate episode my friends! I’m the first to admit, I have a little bit of Top Chef Canada fatigue. I think it was pretty obvious who the final 5 were going to be (see my early prediction from Episode 4; I had them all right except for Andrea), and at......
It’s crunch time, friends! Down to the final 5! This episode starts with Dale talking about how much he misses his son, how much he wants to win, and how much he wants the money. Francois says he didn’t have any fun on the bottom last week. Connie misses Andrea, and feels pressure as the only......
Chef Lynn Crawford’s in the house this week, and she’s got her hair did – it’s usually pretty wild on Pitchin’ In. The Quickfire this week is to design both a morning and afternoon snack size meal for Porter Airlines. The food has to fit into the little boxes, and everything needs to be served chilled or......
***If you’re here looking for Dale’s pulled pork recipe, it has yet to be posted on the President’s Choice website. I’ll add the link when it’s posted. Thanks for visiting!***   Update: Here it is! (on Food Network’s website)   Only seven cheftestants are left! We’re definitely narrowing down the field. This week’s episode starts......
