Salt Lick

So after the commercial, Nathan tells Beverly how to properly use the device and Beverly interviews that she's socially awkward. Sarah made a breakfast rabiolo, pancetta and egg yolk. You guys, I finally had a burger with a fried egg on top and it was amazing and why have I been wasting my time eating plain burgers all this time and why didn't anyone tell me? Holy crap, that was good stuff. Anyway, Sarah's dish looks yummy although I'm not sure about the orange juice "sauce." Edward made salmon belly sashimi, compressed watermelon and brunoise radishes. Grayson made trout sashimi, dill caviar, pickled watermelon, cucumber and radish. Is watermelon the hot new ingredient or what? I don't get it. Watermelon is fine on a hot day, but it's mostly water. It's kind of flavorless. Maybe that's the point.

Ty made watermelon, vanilla bean honey, black pepper and salted olive oil powder. Lindsay made marinated baby octopus, tempura sea beans and togurashi. I don't know what those things are and why I would want to eat most of them, but I'm sure she did a good job. Actually, I'm not sure. I was trying to be nice. Chris Hollywood made a lady suit out of skin. Just kidding! He also made risotto foam, scallops, raisins, and fried capers. There's no food in there. I guess the scallops, but seriously. Foam and raisins? That's like an anorexic's dream meal. Paul made endive salad, egg yolk and parmesan and truffle powder. It's all white. That does not look appetizing at all. I should just shut up. I'm not going to like any of this stupid food except for Sarah's raviolo.

Chris Moto finally has his chance and he's ALL fired up about it and the other cheftestants are looking at each other and smirking and rolling their eyes. He tells Padma and Nathan to "take the red pill" and how long did he plan out that line and how gross is it that he planned it out for so long? God, he is a dork. Then he starts explaining the miracle berry and what it does and Nathan is like, "I grow it in my basement." In other words, shut up, noob. Oh, that was great. YA BURNT, Chris Moto. So then he has them eat a lemon which tastes, according to Padma, like a tangerine. So just eat a tangerine? Shutting up now. The rest of his dish is a deconstructed cheesecake, and sparkling water with lemon and lime. I have so many remarks about how dumb this dish is, but you've heard it all already. Paul speaks for all of us when he interviews that Chris's miracle berry is "kind of gimmicky."
