Thanks to everyone for their support of myself and all the other finalists (HI MATT! HEY CHERRY!). I am genuinely grateful for all the posts I've read, good and bad. (It's nice to know people watched and enjoyed the show!) To answer questions regarding where I am now... I am running a small private bistro on the Culver City Studios Lot: "Stage One Bistro." It's basically a one-woman show, open only for lunch, with a very seasonal menu, and great daily specials. I'm really having a lot of fun with it. I really enjoyed doing the show. Inviting everyone to my room in all the different cities to study and food-talk really made it easier for me. I learned things from every single finalist, and feel like I've grown tremendously since. If I could do it all over again, I would in a heartbeat. So when you feel the sweat, start to trickle down your back, and the hungry people are about to attack, don't you fret, and don't forget, you'll always be, COOKING UNDER FIRE!!! (Ming Tsai, you crack me up) Hahaha...
