Analyze This Bee-havior

August 06, 2007

In true Whitesnake fashion “Here I go again on my own, going down the only road I’ve ever known, like a drifter I was born to walk alone!” The new theme song for Chef Hung -- that’s it. Period. We’ll revisit this later but let’s move onto the business at hand -- the Quickfire Challenge -- a culinary bee. Oooh … bzzz*

The first thing I will say is what the hell, Joey? You’re my boy, and you know I love you, but talk about a brain fart! I’ll leave it at that. Secondly, bow tie pasta? C’mon! Of course, you can figure out what it is Casey, and I will give you credit for the fish paste, mmm, delicious … NOT! Ok, so this is one of those fun challenges where the academic chefs seemed excited to participate but the faces on our lovely “practical” cheftestants told a different story. As Chefs we know how important it is to constantly seek information, to search near and far for fabulous new ingredients but more importantly educate ourselves on everything culinary. This was that challenge. Some did better than others, some got nervous at the hand of Rocco’s sultry stare and some, well … some just. So Casey congrats, I suppose. I wish the bee had been a little more challenging but there’s always next season ;)
