Let's see if I can remember all the places I've eaten that are Top Chef related: 1. Aquavit in 2001 (Marcus Samuelsson was still there). One of my favorite restaurants in NY at the time, and I still rank my meals there as some of the best of my life. 2. Woodfire Grill. Got the tasting menu, and it was amazing. Not a weak bite in the bunch. 3. FLIP Burger. It was fine. Not my favorite, but the fries and Nutella shake were the highlight. 4. Empire State South. The Jars appetizer was wonderful, and my duck had a perfectly crisp skin. Hugh seems to harp on duck fat not being properly rendered, and I understand why! 5. Anjeo. This is one of my favorite meals ever, mainly because Angelo was there and hung out at our table for a few minutes. He also brought us all tequila shots! The food was pretty good, but the overall atmosphere made me want to go back! Fun place. 6. Craft. The best scallops of my life. Like butter. 7. Red Rooster. The best deviled eggs of my life! I also loved the décor of this place. I am reading MS's book now, and it makes me want to go back! 8. David Burke Townhouse (when it was called David Burke and Donatella). Cheesecake lollipops! 9. WD-50. Crazy food, but delicious. 10. Aureole. Was a long time ago! I think that's it! Have a reservation at Perilla next weekend, so I'll report back. Also, am going to Chicago in July and have reservations at Girl and the Goat and Frontera Grill. I love visiting Top Chef places!
