Season One winner Michael was the obvious winner from day one, but I find it hard to believe ANYONE from this season is capable of running a decent kitchen of any size. Does anyone know where Michael is working now? I guess I'll root for Heather, with Virginia being my second choice because, let's face it, she's smokin' hot! Keith is a joke. A very unfunny joke.

This was a great episode. I haven't missed one yet, and Tony has been a HUGE influence on my culinary career. I realize Texas isn't a very exotic location, but I sure hope he visits our fair state for a show in the not too distant future.

This is my first post, and I just wanted to wish Tony and crew all the best! I've been a huge fan for years, and I just found this wonderful site. I'm sure I'll learn a lot from all of you, and hope I can add a little humor and help to those who need it! I'll keep reading... THANKS!
