Dear Jenny,
Did you watch last night's Top Chef? I had somehow missed the preview for this week's episode and therefore was entirely caught off guard by the Cliff-Marcel-head-shaving fiasco. A bit of a disappointment -- I don't feel strongly one way or another about Cliff, but I would have rather it had come down to the Judges' Table.
Because of Cliff's ouster, we had a weird, long fake-out of a Judge's Table, with everyone who had previously praised the meal then contradicting themselves, assumedly in order to manufacture drama around the foregone conclusion that all four of the remaining chefs were going to the finale. This was lame: "Pack your knives and go . . . to Hawaii!" The Hell?
This is, I think, really funny:

I like Padma, but still . . .
What did you think?
Love,

PS Isn't Elia beautiful with a shaved head? Ilan, not so much.
