Iron Chef...

[Really Nice!]

I'm not sure if this is even news anymore, but a month back when I found out I was told not to tell. However, everyone in the biz is talking about it so the news has to be out there.

Two Seattle chefs are going to compete on Iron Chef America.

Tamara Murphy of Brasa will be flying to New York and filming her competition for Iron Chef America on Friday, April 29, 2005. She'll be bringing with her two assistants, one of whom is Mary Lokar. Mary is a graduate of the Art Institute of Seattle Culinary Arts program and is also the 2004 ACF (American Culinary Federation) National Student Culinarian of the Year; last year she was the number one culinary student in the country, folks!

Also Tom Douglas of... well, if you don't know!... will be filming his competition in about two or three weeks.

I have word that Tamara will be competing against Mario. Haven't heard much about Tom's competition. I don't know when these will be aired on Food Network.

Enjoy!

That is very exciting. Is the air date the same as the film date?

He mentioned Morimoto on Saturday (and he shared radio time with Mario.)

Looking at the website and the Iron Chef America programs scheduled through May - I am thinking these tapings won't show this season. Oh the agony if we must wait...

I saw a copy of today's food section at school and there was an article by Nancy Lesson(?). I think it aires in August, but I'm not sure.

Go to Brasa on Saturday or Sunday and get the mood of the kitchen. That should be a tell-tale sign as to whether Tamara won.

Yup, the column is here and it says the episodes are scheduled to air in August.

So has anyone heard the dish about who won? Waiting until August is just cruel. I am happy to hear conjecture as well as fact. I just want to hear SOMETHING!
