One of the points made was how the seasoning is affected by the altitude. So the chefs seasoned that way and then the judges ate the food on the ground. Who kows? Although they did have the "guru" of Luftansa Airlines as a judge so no doubt that was taken into consideration. Aaron Sanchez is by all reports (some from hhis competitors, mind you) is a great young chef. He has had trouble with timing in the other competitions. But I think they made the right choice. Cosentino is probably the next to get the ax. He's great too, but might not have the temperment to be an Iron Chef. my money is on Michael Symon. He has a strong TV presence, is a fab chef (even in CLeveland) and is highly-respected by his peers. Plus he has a great attitude and truly seems to love to cook. It's odd though because he is one of the featured chefs in Michael Ruhlman's "Chef..." series. Word is Ruhlman - who I have a serious crush on - knows all the other chefs pretty well, also. there is alot of negative talk about Knowlton though. People think he is being nasty and overly picky.
