Whats the best thing about Vegas?
The best thing about Las Vegas was the quality of the food we ate both on and off the show. We were, of course, so thrilled with how talented our chefs were this season, and how well they all rose to the challenges we presented. In addition, it was inspiring and exciting to have enough time to actually explore the city beyond the lights and action of the strip. There are so many interesting and exceptional restaurants and ethnic pockets that no tourist gets to see in the usual three-day gambling trip or short vacation. 11. What would be your dream Elimination Challenge to judge? Who would be competing, what would it entail, and who else would be judging? I already had my dream Elimination Challenge—it was the Top Chef Masters finale [with Rick Bayless, Hubert Keller and Michael Chiarello competing]! You cannot really get better than that. And I am thrilled that I will be part of it once again for season 2.
