Americans vs Canadians!

GAME ON MY CANADIAN FRIENDS!

Has anyone ever heard of a great Canadian Chef......... Hell no!
Has anyone ever heard of a great American Chef............. Hell yes!

First let me begin by saying that I do believe Astin and Joanne are good cooks, however I believe that Riggstad and myself will win this hands down..... There is no doubt... What the Canadians fail to realize is that Riggs is my secret weapon, anything the man touches turns to GOLD! (Proven Fact) so my only advice to the Canadians is to BRING IT ON, and bring it on hard..... and one last thing "GOOD LUCK" you will need it.......... I need to say no more........

Astin said...

Susur Lee, Jamie Kennedy, Rob Feenie, Lynn Crawford, David Adjey... the list goes on. Just because Americans can't see past their own egos doesn't mean there aren't world-class chefs up here.

Prepare to be humbled.

Donkette, lets look at great chefs as a percentage of population.

Doesn't matter either way.

You're still going down.
