Others Watch Paint, I Watch Cooks

I secretly long for Wednesdays to come so I can watch the new episode of Top Chef. I love this reality show. I like cooking shows in general, but I like it even more when it is a competition. This is the 3rd season of Top Chef and I think that this is the most talented bunch yet. I hate to hate Hung (the knife wonder, arrogant but elegant Vietnamese chef) but they make him out as an asshole sometimes. Tonight, he was likeable.A new favorite of mine is Giada of Food Network's Everday Italian. I used to hate her big head and "out-there" cleavage but I am starting to really like her seemingly genuine energy and her clean and yummy looking food. I just can't believe someone so pretty and dainty can cook too. I love to hate her. I love her food-travel show.
But my real favorite is Anthony Bourdain and I have not even seen him cook. It really sucks that I don't get the Travel channel and therefore cannot watch his No Reservations show but I had watched some episodes on the DVD (yeah, die-hard I tell you). I have read his books too. He is so irreverent and so anti-nice - I love him.
