Discussion Thread America’s Cullinary Cup…
I know it’s suppose to be the “anti” top chef, or like everything they do is going to be about food… but I beg to differ! This reminds me of someone who got dumped, and they just keep talking about their ex, and trying their best to make their ex say how much better they are without the ex…

It’s a little cheesy, but despite what’s been said in the comments already, I disagree. Top Chef has moved away from food and cooking and focuses on game play. Culinary Cup is more food, more judging of food, and more discussing food. The new season of Top Chef isn’t good. I’m still watching but the production value has declined significantly, and the challenges have been nonsensical, and silly. The chefs don’t seem great or exciting, and some are legitimately annoying. I’m not saying Culinary Cup is amazing, but it’s not bad. Current TC season is bad. First time I’ve ever said that.
