He did do better than Michael in Tournament of Champions though as I recall. I always liked him much better than his brother although Michael is a great chef, he was so arrogant.

I mean, how awesome is Carla! She just has such a sweet spirit, no matter what happened, she never let it get to her, and never stepped out of her character, always remaining positive. She's so goofy corny (in a good way) and just fun as hell.
You forgot to mention that Kevin has two restaurants here in Atlanta and has recently opened a third. He also appears on the wild and whole Cooking Channel.
What does it say about the “Top Chef” competition when most of its talent is pushed out of the competition. Those chefs who are awarded “Top Chef” go off to anonymity therefore the prestige of the competition is never elevated. The so called losers like Nina Compton go off and excel in the field and win James Beard Awards. In fact Top Chef has called on Nina several times to come back and judge. I wonder why they don’t ask the season winner to return? What’s his name again? I just don’t want Nina to return to a Top Chef All-Star competition. I don’t care how much they pay her, she is better than that. 🤨🤨🤨.
