Featuring 100 fabulous recipes from the first three seasons of the show, including dishes from the Elimination Rounds and the Quick-Fire Challenges, <em>Top Chef: The Cookbook</em> invites fans into the hottest kitchen on prime time. In-depth discussions with contestants, judges, and crew reveal the inner workings of the show, and lavish photographs take readers behind-the-scenes into the <em>Top Chef</em> pantry and the competition sites. Handsomely packaged with a canvas cover inspired by the chef's jacket worn by each of the <em>Top Chef</em> contestants, this cookbook will have aspiring culinary contenders reliving classic show moments and relishing new recipes just in time to obsess over Padma's outfits in Season 4.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[I really enjoyed this, because pretty much I'm a Top Chef fanatic, and I just ate up (pardon my pun) the whole book. My only complaint is that there needed to be more pictures of the food. Not that I would ever attempt these recipes, because I can barely handle grilled cheese, but that's one of my favorite things about Top Chef: seeing the plated food. Other than that, it was great. I can't wait for the second one. :)]]></body>
