Top Chef: Oregon

Here's a preview of next season's Top Chef, this time filmed in Oregon. It goes to show, who needs all of those fancy restaurants in New York when you've got the Plaid Pantry?

Elimination Challenge: Convenience Store Cook-off

Each cheftestant drew knives to find out which course they would be cooking. Next, they were given a budget of $5 to spend at the local Plaid Pantry gas station, plus whatever was in the pantry. They had to do the shopping in 6 minutes. The first 4 courses had 20 minutes to prepare their dish, while the last two had 45 minutes. At the end of the challenge, each cheftestant had to guess which convenience store items were used in each dish.
