Chicago’s Top Chef

by Matt B on October 11th, 2007

'It's been a week since the finale of Top Chef's third season, so I don't think I'm spoiling it for anyone when I say that, sadly, our favorite chef from Chicago, Dale Levitski, did not win. However, his culinary skills helped him make it all the way to the final episode, where he was one of the final three contestants competing for the title of Top Chef.

The finale was aired live here in Chicago, though despite my best efforts, I haven't been able to determine exactly where in the city the finale was held. The cable television network Bravo did not release the location of the studio, and it was a closed set. However, I can say with great pride that the next season of Top Chef is currently being filmed right here in Chicago! The Windy City has definitely earned itself a place in the culinary scene, so I can't wait to see how the talented contestants make use of the city's flavors and resources. So if you're in town, be on the lookout for handsome Tom Colicchio, the beautiful Padma Lakshmi, and of course the pack of time-pressed, fast-moving chefs!
