For the tour, it says "cooking demonstrations, gourmet tips, and show secrets", all for free, but you have to sign up in advance and some are filled up. I THINK the way they are making money is by selling merchandise??? I still can't get the links to be "clickable" to find out details about each tour stop. There's also a Top Chef "class" in NYC, with one Top Chef contestant for each of several dates. This one has a limited class size of thirty-some and a price tag of $195. I would love to go if I could work it out; would simply be hard to choose which chef; some of my favorites are there. http://www.bravotv.com/Top_Chef/season/4/class/index.php

I'd struggle between Dale Levitski and Casey of last season, also Tre, and Stephanie of course. Actually, the only one that wouldn't interest me would be Marcel, and possibly Jennifer.

They must be adding the dates a little at a time for the tour. I just checked now and a few more are filled up already. Looks like the only ones open right now are in Philadelphia, PA on July 5 and 6.

I'm just so glad that Stephanie won! I might be interested in seeing the "tour" when it comes to town. I suppose it depends on who's there and what I'm doing that day...but it looks like they've been selling out in advance. SO maybe I won't be able to wait until the last minute. And of course, the stoopid links for tickets don't work. Ugh.

Wow, got excited at first since more tour dates are "clickable" now today on the Bravo website. However, when I click on them, this message is there: Sorry, this city is closed for pre-registration, but seats will be available on the day of the show on a first come, first served basis. So I don't know if there'd be a chance of still getting in, but thought I'd post it in case anyone in these areas is interested. The dates are: 7/16 St. Louis, Mo 7/19 Denver, CO 7/26 Phoenix, AZ 7/30 San Diego, CA 8/2 San Francisco, CA 8/3 San Francisco, CA

I think there was a long time between the filming of the rest of the show and when the finale was. In that time Richards wife got very pregnant. I can see where he would be off his game. I think I was ost surprised at how the judges seemed to have more respect for Lisa than most of the people posting on message boards. I think they probably were all good chefs this year, but the game show part throws some of them off.

The judges repeatedly complimented Lisa's palate - how sad that it couldn't have been paired with a pleasant personality! That is the sort of pairing that makes Top Chefs!

Sadiesmom, that is probably because the judges actually got to taste her food while all we saw was her personality.

Wooo hooo!!! I'm so excited - I found out today that the next Top Chef will be in New Orleans. One of the attorneys I work with has a friend who is a Saucier at Commander's Palace and he auditioned for the show a couple of months ago when they were down here for auditions. He has since told my attorney that the show will be held here next season. No word yet on whether or not he made it.
