Tom Colicchio: He Cooks, He Hosts, He Saves Lives
According to the Internet Food Association,
Top Chef co-host Tom Colicchio was cooking at best-selling cookbook author (Jewish Cooking in America) Joan Nathan's house at one of the Art, Food, Hope dinners put together to benefit D.C. Central Kitchen and Martha's Table, when Nathan started to choke on a piece of food. Colicchio sprang into action and performed the Heimlich maneuver on Nathan. She was impressed: "He's strong."
He's a triple threat, that Tom. He cooks (at least every other Tuesday these days), he hosts, and he saves lives. Plus, he even blogs these days. Our hero, and Joan's too, obviously.

Can he walk on water? I am so into Colicchio especially after his high school picture as posted. I would have let him carry my books and open doors for me. He's a cutie pie.

Shout-out to all the Tom Lovers!! (ie-jerzee, pointy and hilary)
I'm so in love with Collicchio I wish he performed the Heimlich maneuver on me. He's so intelligent and articulate--I wouldn't be surprised if he had his own congregation!
She was impressed: "He's strong."...oh I bet! *drewl* LOL
