Enjoyed the ep, I have always loved hating Marcel (while I agree he was bullied terribly and mercilessly, he does have a smack-able face) and I have been a Blais fan from the beginning. (Didn't people used to like Blais? Just me?) I have not watched any of the other spin-offs, but I will enjoy this as a fan of TC.
I don't think either of them made anything I'd want to eat, though. (Maybe Marcel's soup without the menthol nose digestif).
I have been to Blais' burger joint and didn't see anything I couldn't have come up with myself. (Tasty booze milkshakes, though). His delusions of grandeur during the burger challenge seemed a bit much, but I just have a feeling this thing is so producer-created that everything that happened/was said was totally inorganic.
