Top Chef throws the "Ultimate Dinner Party" on S23E9

from But I’ll Take a Pinot Grigio

The cheftestants are taking their show on the road as they head to Greenville, South Carolina for a high intensity quickfire/elimination challenge combo. Each dish had to be based on Duke's Mayonaise and Sundi is a happy camper. Exhausted and feeling sentimental, the remaining chefs fight to stay upright and take home the major prize.  We'll take a look at all the cheftestants and see which category of ours they fit into; weeded, seeded or defeated.  It's gonna be a great season, y'all. The Pinot Pod is leaving London and heading to the city. Emilie will now be applying her expertise to these young, beautiful NYC dwellers as we discuss “in The City” the spin off of the much debated Summer House.  Find us for vintage VPR on Tuesdays  and Fridays and for season 12 recaps on Tuesday nights dropping right after the show.
