Minicap: Hell’s Kitchen


By PopePhilly | | 6:07 am | 17 Comments

All you have to know about what happened previously on “Hell’s Kitchen” is that Robyn is gone. Nothing else about this show matters. Robyn is gone, I am happy, and I’m looking forward to this episode being peaceful.

Later, bitch!

The mini challenge is all about teaching. The chefs will be teaching former Miss Teen USAs how to cook. Justin is a little bit gross about this. Stop leering at teenagers, Justin! The chefs are not allowed to touch any of the ingredients. All they can do is teach. This challenge actually goes a lot better than I expected. When Barbie wins the challenge, everyone thinks that she’s trying to build an alliance. Maybe she just wanted to spend the day with someone who hasn’t been a dick to her for most of the season.

Tonight is Italian night in “Hell’s Kitchen.” Of course everyone thinks that Clemenza is going to do well because he’s Italian. I had no idea! Did you guys all know that Clemenza is Italian? It hasn’t been mentioned all season. However, I want to remind everyone that all the chefs thought that Kimmie would do well on Southern Night.

Check back soon for the full recap. In the meantime, read BlueCanary’s recap from last week!

    Every time a chef says, “it’s my night to shine”…. Ah, well, they never learn, do they?

    Did Dana seem to have taken a double dose of annoying for this episode?

    Maybe next week will be Dana’s “time to shine.” We can only hope. :)

    @wishicoulddance…..haha yeah! I thought the same thing. The only shine coming off Clemenza was from his face.

    Mr. timgunnssister watched the show with me (this is a rare thing, believe me) and when it was over he asked if Clemenza’s sweatiness wouldn’t be considered a health code violation. ‘Cause you KNOW some of that stuff is finding its way into the food. He should be swathed from head to toe in 5 day deoderant pads before being allowed into any kitchen.

    Random bit of fun gossip! I read an interview with Robyn last night (if I can find it again, I’ll post the link here). She was asked about her relationship with Barbie. All Robyn said was, “Well, she was at my viewing party last night.”

    Because this is a show, I’m willing to bet that certain people were supposed to play up parts of their personality. Robyn was cast as the heinous bitch, Kimmie was the super southern one, Clemenza is the super Italian one, Dana and Justin are the ringers, etc.

    This was the best show…no Crack/Meth Mouth! PopeP what do you mean Clemenza’s Italian? Did you find that out researching online??? The words of death on this show are “It’s my night to shine”. Justine made me want to take a bath after all that leering, he’s so gross. I must say when I read and saw “Miss Teen USA 2005″, who, what, and the huh? That lady is way too old to be doing anything with ‘teen’ in the name. Can’t wait until the recap.

    Well, didn’t we all know who was going to be put up for elimination when:
    1. Barbie won the competition.
    2. It was Italian Clemenza’s night to shine.

    This ain’t our first prom, GRRRR!!!!! We knew. WE KNEW!!!!!!!

    All of us are doing our happy little “bye bye Clemenza” dance!
    This year has just been a cute little tossed salad of slob with crazy sprinkled on for texture.

    @ timgunnssister — Clemenza’s sweatiness is nothing compared to another man who was on HK a few seasons ago. I can’t for the life of me remember his name, but I do remember that his signature dish from the first episode was a tiny chicken inside a pumpkin. Sweat would trickle off the end of his nose and fall into the pots and pans of food, and Gordon finally made him wear a bandana across his forehead at all times while in in the kitchen. So. Gross.

    @ Sharon — I remembered! It was Petrozza!!! I actually wanted him to win, in spite of his sweaty face and weird pumpkin fetish.

    Oh, yeah! Gross!

    Also, remember that crazy hick Van? He was absolutely sweating like a p.i.g. the night he got eliminated.

    I liked Petrozza. I liked him as soon as he stuffed a ridiculous amount of meat and vegetables into an empty pumpkin and called it his signature dish.

    But Clemenza just grosses me out. It’s not just the sweat either, it’s that his chef’s jacket is always dirty and he’s ridiculously sloppy in the kitchen. I just would never want him touching my food or the plate that my food went on or the counter that my plated food rests upon.
    Just stay the fuck away from my food Clemenza.

    My hubby kindly pointed out that Miss Teen 2005 is probably in her early to mid-twenties, so perfectly leering material for Justin. I always love the “teach to cook” challenges, because of the high heels in the kitchen. CRACKS ME UP!

    Can’t wait for the full cap!

    What cracked me up the most is when Clemenza’s little totsy said she had to get her “thongs” – because no one in my family seems to be able to pronounce the word tongs either!!
