Spoilers for the finale of Top Chef DC coming up:
Top Chef DC ended its run in Singapore, but it started off in our nation’s capital, and it tried to structure its challenges around Washington, its culture and its politics.

Spoilers for last night’s premiere episode of Top Chef: DC follow: “I will set the presidents,” misspoke Angelo with perfect appropriateness, as he kicked off Top Chef‘s first series set in the nation’s capital by rolling to a win in both the Quickfire and the Elimination challenges. If the precedent has indeed been set, we [...]
