In its nine seasons, Top Chef has become infamous for the
devilishness of some of the challenges cheftestants have to endure —
they must be called cheftestants, for one, and they’ve had to build

*And I admit, this is the sort of headline you come up with at 1 a.m., but in Santa Barbara, where our most famous author is T.C. Boyle, and TC can equal both Tom Colicchio and Top Chef, well, I couldn't resist.
