i think you can't miss either going to komi or blue duck tavern for the great dining experience you are guaranteed to have at either place.

We do cheeseburgers (usually Swiss, but sometimes cheddar with or without chiles added) and top them with a fried egg and a little ketchup. It's what my BF asks for every year for his birthday.

Also, I like a good burger topped with Saga blue or cambezolla cheese and some mushrooms that have been sauteed with a little shallot and garlic with a bit of dijon mustard on the bun.

I season my burgers with a bit of coarse sea salt and coarsely ground fresh pepper before cooking. We like the flavorful crust that results from doing it that way.

Was this the girl who said she did not care what bloggers said about her? Oh now she cares! Ha! I like her less than Marcel, he at least was funny.

I find it really bizarre that Lisa expected the win. Stephanie and Richard were very clearly the front runners going in. Lisa may have made a solid final meal, but it certainly was not better than Stephanie's, and Stephanie clearly was the superior chef throughout the series, earning win after win week after week. Wasn't Lisa's only win a group challenge?

I do, however, think its a nice picture, and I would really like to try that soup and soup dumpling from the finale.

Honestly I think she might've just hired a good PR person, because most of these answers seem staged and reserved. I have more respect for someone who's a complete bitch but honest about it than for someone who's clearly glossing over things that, editing or not, came out of her mouth.

I also have always hated how arrogant she is about being a good chef - every other chef admitted it when they'd messed up, but she continues to assert (even in this interview) that nothing's her fault. I've never heard her take responsibility for a single dish, except the good ones, of course. I'd still like to hear her explain the Great Rice Sabotage Scandal of 2008.....

I find people who cook for a living to be fascinating. Just like people who build and remodel houses. Cooking and Home Improvement shows are some of my favorites.

Sitting back on the couch, watching other people work hard doing things I have no desire to do myself, yet still enjoy seeing and learning about -- Awesome!
