YoBeat Most Awesome Chef: Peter Line vs. Party Time Nate

Peter Line and Party Time Nate met once again in a battle of culinary skills. For this YoBeat Most Awesome Chef challenge, the home court advantage was Nate's, as Peter drove down to Portland to attempt to take out Nate once again. The secret ingredient of coffee (provided by Wille Yli Luoma and Heart Roasters) prove to be a challenge for both chefs, but they managed to put together two very good meals. Only one could come out on top though, and claim the glamorous prize. If you missed the first time Peter and Nate met, be sure to check it out. GET YOUR OWN YOBEAT HOODIE CHEF'S COAT HERE…

Top Chef Part 3

After losing the soup off, and the Totino's Party Pizza challenge, I figured it was time to let some other people do the cooking. I brushed up on my hosting skills by studying Padma for weeks (not really) before we headed to Seattle for this latest Top Chef installment. This time it was legendary pro snowboarder Peter Line competing against my former challenger, Party Time Nate, and the theme was hot dogs! Peter was kind enough to host in his insane Seattle pent house that sort of made me feel bad about my own home. Maybe I shouldn't have given up on being a pro snowboarder after all... It was…

Top Chef Portland!

Jared has been claiming soup skills since I met him. Since I fancy myself to have some culinary skills as well, I couldn't just let him claim it. So after lots of talk, we finally got down to it: the official soup off. Thanks to Nate, Chrissy and Tim for judging. As for the winner? Well, you'll have watch the video to find out:

Losing it

The first few days back from a trip are always weird. Maybe it's the jet lag (but seriously, it was only three hours of time difference) or the fact that I almost have to get re-accustomed to sleeping in the insane comfort that is my own bed. Maybe I just get out of the habit of getting up, going into the office, and working. Whatever it is, it taking longer than usual this time. When I am out of town for awhile I forget about what I have to do. I always have several projects going at once, and since I am usually traveling for one at a time that…
