s/o your Chef crush?

Who is your chef crush? 

Doesn't have to be a guy... what Paula Deen does with butter...mmmmmm.

 

Mine is Anthony Bourdain, though Eric Ripert's accent is pretty hot too and he can cook circles around Tony.  I love it when they're on Top Chef.  Sigh...

Re: s/o your Chef crush?

  • Tom Colicchio.  That man is HOT.  Followed closely by Bryan Voltaggio, the only Top Chef contestant I've ever swooned over.

    Oooh, yeah, I love Colicchio's eyes.  And Bryan was pretty nice to look at.  Though he had a twinge of the David Hyde Pierce in him.

  • Wylie Dufresne. My DH and I ate at wd-50 and got to meet him when we were in NYC. Not only was the food amazing and delicious, but he was really nice.

  • You ladies can have Bryan, because I'm calling dibs on Michael V.  (swoon)

    Wylie Defresne. My DH and I ate at wd-50 and got to meet him when we were in NYC. Not only was the food amazing and delicious, but he was really nice.

    I loved wd-50!  We didn't get to meet him but I saw him through the kitchen door and I like to think that he personally prepared our dinner. :)

    He might have! He does a ton back there. If you go back, ask for a kitchen tour, that's how we met him.

  • +1 for Bourdain...I've always had a mean crush on him.  His writing style and sense of humor are a big hit with me. 

    FYI - he's coming to talk at the Paramount on April 1st.  !!!$%&&#$@#$**

  • haha!  I was googling top chef images and all these pictures of Padma looking like this kept popping up!  She's HOT!

    My vote would be for Colicchio...but he looks a bit like my DH, so that might be cheating.

    I know!!!!!!!  I'm trying to not-so-subtly hint to DH that we need to get tickets to that.  I think we missed the VIP tickets that include a meet-n-greet though :(

     Oh yeah, Giada would definitely be my girl-chef crush.  I want to be her.
