Match point for the fabulous Carla Hall on Top Chef All Stars. The Season 5 finalist and Washington D.C.-based chef/caterer royally served culinary hotness Tre Wilcox, clinched victory for her team at the US Open and won the elimination challenge. Despite cutting off her fingernail and being underestimated by her teammates.
And what a rollercoaster ride for Tre and Carla. Carla was in the bottom of the Quickfire—which Tre won, plus $20,000, but ended up losing later to Carla. Thankfully he had immunity.
Loving this season of Top Chef. The producers are bringing their A-game and so are the cheftestants ... everyone except for Jamie Lauren, who is still in the competition despite not having served a dish twice. smh.
Team Carla all the way. Watch the episode AFTER THE JUMP ...








SHE IS AMAZING!!

I was so torn watching this episode. I love me some Tre, but I have always been a fan of Carla. i was glad that Carla won. I love how she is such a real person.
I don't know why Tre would let Angelo help him on his dish. Everyone knows that Angelo tries to sabotage the competition. He did it last season with the cute bald black bear guy.

Im very happy for Carla, she has beautiful spirt that really comes through when she is on the show. I would personally love to see Carla, Tre and Dale make it to the top three (Love Tiffany from Texas as well...but she doesnt seem to be all that into this time around, perhaps because her season recently finished).
And yes Jamie needs to get the BOOT!!

Quest and Butchie:
My top four are Carla, Tre, Dale and Blais. Carla's spirit is so beautiful and loving. I liked Tiffany Derry in S7 but she really doesn't seem like she is bringing it. And Miss Angelo is a snake honey, a snake.
And supposed to be straight? Oh gurlll ...
And Miss Jamie needs to SCRAM!

BTW, is anyone else noticing that redhead Tiffany Faison from season 1 is a lot nicer? She was such a beoytch the first time around but obviously saw how she came across on tv.
I was only so-so about Antonia in season 4 but she did get to the finale. Antonia is doing well this time, but I am still all about Carla, Tre, Dale and Richard B.

I loooooooove Carla, and i wish she would've won her season, but hopefully she can take this season. I'm also rooting for Tiffany, but she needs to get herself together and show the judges what she's got!
