“Top Chef” seeks suggestions

Got a call from Bravo yesterday asking for recommendations for the upcoming season six of “Top Chef.” They’re looking for “amazing, innovative and diverse chefs” in the Bay Area. Got any ideas? I suggested Hoss Zare at Zare at the Fly Trap in San Francisco. His resurrection of that restaurant is impressive. His personal story is amazing. And his food is top-notch.
They’re looking for executive chefs, chefs de cuisine and extraordinary sous chefs. Post them here (let’s get some East Bay representation!) or send the chef of your choice to the casting call this Sunday Feb. 8 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Ducca Restaurant & Lounge.

Sean Paxton or Bruce Patton.
Ask them why Garrett Oliver hasn’t made an appearance on this season. They drink his beer in every episode.

And ask them why their beer pairing episode last season didn’t feature more craft brew

But I forgot to mention how cool it is that Bravo is asking for recommendations – I do watch Top Chef and I always root for the home team. Got serrrved by Eric at Circa – I was starstruck!

I wonder what I would ask Mahler if I had the chance to travel back in time and meet him in person.
