High Hopes Fell Short for the Next Iron Chef

I don't make time to watch the Next Iron Chef, but I happened to have watched every episode so far. The show aired whenever I turned the channel to the Food Network.

I had high hopes for Chef Farmerie, the executive chef of Public, one of my favorite restaurants. Sadly, he was eliminated in the latest episode because of his take on innovation by combining Chinese dumpling and Pierogi.

Yes, making dumplings is not an easy task, so I definitely feel for him. I just hope that his participation in the show won't translate into more customers for Public, ridiculously hard to get tables and slip in its quality.
