Top Chef Premiere Alert

Screw the election, the November happening that I'm most excited about is the premiere of the new season of Top Chef on November 12. This season will be filmed in New York, and still features the venerable Tom Colicchio of Craft fame, despite his opening of a new, quirky little restaurant in New York called Tom: Tuesday Dinner (name still in flux, thank God).

According to Bravotv.com, Padma and and Gail Simmons will also be back accompanied by a new judge, author Toby Young. Guests lined up for this season include Martha Stewart, Jean Georges, Eric Ripert, Rocko DiSpirito, and Natasha Richardson. As usual, the contestant list looks to be filled with many of the usual arrogant tool types that you can't wait to see booted by hot little Padma (just try to forget she used to be married to Salman Rushdie, a.k.a. "Old Balls")
