The Next Food Network Star
Ah, Goodbye Jeffery!
I'm sorry, but when I think of soul food I think the person cooking it should have some soul and Jeffery did not. That isn't a bad thing, just a true thing. He should have stuck to classical types of food and he would have been much better off. I don't think he would have won it because he has no television presence but he could have gone further.
I really wanted to hate Lisa. I really, really did but I can't hate her. There is just something about that Vulcan woman that makes me not hate her despite the fact that she almost wet her panties when Martha Stewart came out. Is anyone surprised that Martha is an inspiration to her? I think what makes me want to hate her is that damn Vulcan hairdo. If she just styles her hair differently I think she would have a much better chance.
So did Nipa just phone in that sweet and spicy spice or what? Hello! I can mix sugar and cayenne at home and not have to pay extra for it. Would it have been that hard for her to mix up her own curry powder or some exotic Indian combo that would have had the buyers drooling?
I'm gonna have to go out on a limb and say the final three will be Adam, Lisa and Aaron. Kelsey has a chance if Aaron can't his presentation skills honed (and if she tones down the whole cheerleader rah-rah thing she has going on). I'm really glad Adam rocked the food today because he does have good television presence.

Dude - Aaron is the best. This guy hasn't even pulled all the tricks out of his hat - his culinary skills are top-notch. He has a devoted client following in the south jersey & philly food scene.
His bacon-wrapped potatoes in honey-scallion glaze had me salivating and licking my TV screen.
Lisa Garza is a solid 2nd and she's kinda sexy (in a Star Trek kinda way)
I agree with you on the bacon wrapped potatoes (hell wrap anything in bacon and you can't go wrong) and Aaron does have great ideas but I don't know if he has the self promotion skills and presentational skills to be a Food Network Star. I think he would be a solid and creative cook I just don't think he has Star potential.
