1. Not the ones on the West Coast.
Until now.

2. Fabio deserved it all the way.
Anyone who can cook chicken with a broken finger deserves to win it all. :)

I also think he'll win fan favorite. He's my favorite to win. :)

BTW, how the hell did he break his finger?

3. He slipped and fell. It's dislocated, not broken.

7. Yeah, I gotta go with Fabio too

being in the top two WITH your hand in a cast says a LOT about one's skills.
Though I am turning around on Carla too, I thought she should've gone after the Yogurt soup, but she has proven she belongs since then.

4. Very close, practically a toss-up
On the one hand, Fabio did make a fantastic meal. On the other hand, Carla impressed Pepin (and Ripert last week). That's got to count for something.

5. I thought Carla was going to be out almost first
She looks crazy with those bug-eyes.

That said, I think my initial assumption was false. She can cook.

6. Okay, I'll admit. I watch Top Chef.
It's the only Bravo reality show I watch, and one of the few reality shows in general I watch. I mean, anyone and everyone likes good food, so it's just entertaining to watch. I could care less about clothes or interior design, but food? I'm game.

And I have to say, that Fabio guy is a trip. The way he says stuff with the accent of his just cracks me up. I hope he wins. Although I like the Carla chick too. That was funny, her analogy about the tortoise and all.

8. Carla has really stepped it up.
I'm quite surprised, she seems to have figured out the game and is kicking ass. But I still think Fabio will pull it off.
I don't think Hosea has a chance.
Stefan is going to be a tough competitor, but he has had a hard time in the last few challenges. Unless you include the sardine fillet and eel skinning, which may have more to do with Eurpean training vs USA ad hoc training.

9. I like Fabio, but Carla seems to be the better chef
She's talented and has her own style. Fabio is great, but he's not as skilled.
