Chris says that Lorena worked her butt off and she deserved to win.  (omg, I might be in love with this guy.  Curtis who?)

Heartbroken

Takashi and Patricia must now fight to the “death.”  

Put up your dukes

They come back into the ring and Curtis unveils the main ingredient:  Chicken Livers.  

Chix Livers

Patricia is psyched- she says “Hell yes, the gloves are off!”

Patricia presents a Chicken Liver and asparagus salad with prosciutto.  The Critics think it packs a punch, but James thinks her livers are under-cooked.  Jane corrects him that it’s a matter of personal taste and she thinks the livers are cooked perfectly.  The flavors are very clean.

Patricia vs Takashi

Takashi has made Chicken Livers over pickled carrots and cabbage topped with prosciutto.  His livers are cooked perfectly, he has a great combination of textures and it is beautifully done.


The Critics have made a decision:  PATRICIA WINS!!!  Ugh, which means  Takashi-San is going home. ☹  I love Takashi. But I love Patty too.  And her mole and I are friends on Facebook.

Takashi is slightly shocked to be leaving.   

Meet me at MisRed’s in 20 minutes.  She’ll give us milk and cookies. 

He hopes his family will be proud of him.  I’m bummed.  I really hoped Lorena would be getting the Adios this week.

 

Laters, Takashi-San

Final Four:  Patricia (and her mole), Kerry, Lorena and Chris.

    After Lorena won her round, I switched channels. Anyone other than SHE going home is a travesty. I think that Super Creep Oseland is trying to throw the competition to her.

    Ugg- I was so disappointed with the outcome. I wanted Lorena to get the boot. The more I see her, the more I dislike her. Her “positive”attitude is so aggressively negative and those Taco Bell commercials during the show don’t help to make her likeable.

    MisRed, I love the chef side notes! And the recaps are entertaining, as always. :)

    I was so mad when it came down to Patricia and Takashi because I didn’t want either to go home. I, too, wanted Lorena to get the boot. I want a do-over.

    I wonder what the other chefs think about Lorena hawking for Taco Bell. She destroyed her credibility before the competition ever started in my way of thinking. I want her to get a tummy ache from eating too much cilantro so they can bring Takashi back.

    And I thought the dishes that they made looked and sounded yummy (Pat and Takashi, that is).

    I also hated that Lorena got to stay. She is so incredibly fake, with all her exaggerated mannerism and attempts at appearing funny and cute. She is a total attention whore with even bigger stealth douchiness that Art….she drives me up the wall.

    I’m sad that Takashi left, but I’m hoping that Patty will have another chance to take Lorena down.

    Guys – I agree with all of you who aren’t fans of Lorena!!! She’s just too in your face with all her happiness and exhuberance. It just comes off as incredibly phony. Not only did she stay, she won. I wanted her to get the boot as well and hated to see Takashi go. He seems like a sweet and genuine guy, as well as an excellent chef. I’m rooting for Patricia. PLEASE don’t let Lorena win it all!

    I cannot STAND Lorena – and was hoping that I missed something in the last 3 minutes – and they pulled a Project Runway and everyone stayed. I don’t know what happened after Lorena’s hand was raised (and she beat Chris), because Hubby – who doesn’t even really LIKE this show, but watches it with me, was so pissed that she beat Chris that he shut off the tv and threw our remote across the room.

    Seriously, if you can make my Hubby dislike you that much (and yes, the Taco Bell commercials are NOT helping you, Lorena), then you’ve got talent. We were hoping for a Patrica, Chris, Takashi final 3, Kerry isn’t my favorite, but I can deal with him. :( CHRIS OR PATRICIA (and her mole) FOR THE WIN!

    (But mostly Chris. He’s a classy rock star in the kitchen.)

    I don’t know why I watch these shows sometimes to me they are totally fixed

    I also wanted Lorena to go home. Takashi’s food looks amazing and he’s such a classy guy. At least he’s already won a ton of money (20K) for his charity.

    I guess I’m rooting for Patricia now. Takashi was my favorite and my pick to win. I love Japanese people they’re just so wonderfully weird. I was hoping Lorena or Kerry would go home. Lorena for obvious reasons. And there’s just something about Kerry that bugs me. I’m not sure what it is.

    No, Patricia lost to Lorena and then competed against Takashi (who lost to Chris) – Takashi went bye bye. Patricia (and her mole) are still here! :D

    Nooooooooo Takashi San :(
    And like basically everyone here, I can’t stand Lorena. I can’t understand how she won a bacon challenge if they couldn’t taste the bacon in her dish. But hey, I never understood (and propably never will) the rules of elimination in food shows.

    Also, I found Chris very nice now that Art is gone, no one left to boss around ^^. So I guess now that Takashi is gone, I’m rooting for Chris or Patricia. Even Kerry. But please, not Lorena, she scares the shit out of me.

    What in the entire fuck happened?
    It’s bad enough that my beloved pocket monster had to go home, but the fact that Kerry and fucking loudmouth Lorena were the ones to send him there is just too much bear.
    I freaking don’t like Kerry. I agree with @sagittariuskim that there is just something about him that is a turn off, but it’s not really possible to articulate what it is.

    And Lorena.
    This bitch.
    Can’t clean up after herself, can’t employ simple problem-solving skills, works for Taco Bell, always has to be the loudest one in the room, desperately trying to embody the feisty latina stereotype even though no one likes it, can’t even make hot chocolate without putting cilantro into that shit, one way monkey Lorena. Beat Takashi. Not only did she beat Takashi, but she beat everyone else too.
    What in the entire whole fuck though.

    I wonder if Taco Bell is paying Bravo to keep her on, because I fail to see how a chowder with a sprinkle of bacon can beat a balanced and clean dish with a big ass hunk of perfectly cooked bacon. When bacon is supposed to be the star.
    And I know Curtis knows how annoying she is! He sat with her on a panel for that dumb restaurant show and had to listen to her screech about passion day in and day out. He knows!
    I am so mad at this whole thing right now.

    Chris needs to win the whole shebang and that’s all I have to say on the matter.

    And MisRed, I love that you caught Craig from TC:JD in the audience. Just the sight of him makes me burst into laughter. If I were him, I’d never show up to any Top Chef anything ever again. God, he was so awful. I hope he’s better now.
