I keep feeling like there is/was a rift in the Top Chef galaxy at some point.

Perhaps a Padma-era vs Kish-era thing, or a Bobby/ Guy/ Gordon vs Father Tom thing? Or just simply contractual obligations and non compete clauses.

This season they have mostly only brought out former Top Chefs from the Kish-era. Tristen, Shuai, Savannah, Michelle. Exceptions are Mei (close friend of Kristen) and Jamie (perhaps because he’s a local). Additionally I haven’t seen Brooke or Blais on an episode in years since they’ve both linked up with other shows.

What’s your preferred outlook plug in to track email opens, click throughs, etc? I’ve been using Hubspot but it seems to give false positives.

Does anyone have 2 extra tickets to the Taste of Culver City on Sunday May 3? 🙏
