Cheflebrity Smörgåsbord: Don’t Bug Rachael Ray!
The latest and greatest news about celebrity chefs, served up buffet style.
– Rachael Ray‘s event at a New York school cafeteria had an unexpected, six-legged special guest!
– Apparently, the sign of a true foodie is your participation in a web-only mini series. Tony Bourdain goes the animated route while Tom Colicchio and Todd English talk style for Diet Coke.
After the jump…more Top Chef news than you can shake a stick at and a story about Jeffrey Steingarten, who you would probably like to beat with that stick.
– Slashfood wonders if Jeffrey Steingarten is the “culinary Simon Cowell.” Anyone currently watching Next Iron Chef can already tell you that that he is certainly “a giant asshole.”
– To celebrate the news that Top Chef Masters will be back for a second season, the folks at Pages, Pucks and Pantry post a photo of season one winer Rick Bayless doing something no human should be able to do. HE’S AN ALIEN!
– In other Top Chef spinoff news: What do the cheftestants complain about more than anything else? Deserts, of course. Nonetheless, the casting search is on for folks to compete in Top Chef: Just Desserts.

Okay, so the cockroach would be something that would have been fun to see…. when there is one, there is bound to be thousands.
Many people have a hate-on for Rachel, me, I just don’t even care for her that much to hate her. Too much energy.
Totally cracking up over the “he’s an alien” comment!!
I actually love the idea of Top Chef: Just Desserts. seems like it’s always the most challenging part, so why not?
