Hubbie and I have been there many times. We've attended his Julia Child tribute dinner a couple of times and know the former head waiter there, Jeff, who still works there part time as special events manager. Also the son of a close friend is the bar manager there. I found out from him that Tyler was going to be on "Top Chef" and was so excited! I've never known any of the "cheftestants" on this show and I've been watching since season 1. This is monumental for me! I am soooo rooting for Tyler.

AriAu November 30, 2017 Share November 30, 2017 Quote Lee Ann, Kwame and Marcel are moving on and Jen, with some ugly platinum-dyed hair, went home. Jen was down right scary looking, but her meds were much better balanced than when she was on All Stars. Also looked incredibly skinny...still. Heard she lost 250 pounds of useless fat when she left Mike Isabella's restaurant empire. Quote She last worked for them in Season 4. It’s probably been long enough that there’s no conflict of interest or unfair advantage. She was actually doing the behind the scenes set up for 4 or 5 seasons, but again, at this point, that was a long time ago. Shockingly, Marcel was much less abrasive than usual and he admitted that he put away the chemistry set. I am sure that both things will change sooner or later. And based on his appearance, it would not be a bad thing if his head was shaved.....altho not forcibly. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/62546-season-15-promos-and-possible-spoilers/#findComment-3855241
