Has Top Chef produced anyone that has gone on to become famous since the Voltaggios/Isabella season?

Posted by prayformojo (aka mayhem) Aug 18 '14, 16:17

everyone that I consider "well known" was from that season or before

Responses:

I agree with David. The level of talent has risen tremendously in the later seasons. -- nm - crash davis Aug 18, 16:51
How do we define famous? Brooke hosted an MTV cooking show. -- nm - David Aug 18, 16:19 20
- I guess that would count. What season was she? -- nm - prayformojo Aug 18, 16:20 19
  - She was the best chef during the season Kristen won. - David Aug 18, 16:22 16
    - she is *everywhere* in boston these days. she's the point person for the uniqlousa rollout here...nm - x Aug 18, 17:11 3
      - I admire her decision to stay local and keep working with her mentor rather than moving to LA to be famous. -- nm - David Aug 18, 17:15 2
        
        she quit that restaurant job with barbara lynch months ago though.... - x Aug 18, 17:23 1
        
        I hadn't heard that. I know that Lynch basically gave her a restaurant after she won. -- nm - David Aug 18, 17:28
    - Here is my real question...esp since you've kept up with the show more than I have - prayformojo Aug 18, 16:29 11
      - I actually feel it is the opposite. - David Aug 18, 16:35 10
        
        You can't argue that there have been dominant (genuinely talented) players in the later seasons. - Dignan Aug 18, 17:04 4
        
        If that were true, Nina would have won last year and Brooke two seasons ago. - David Aug 18, 17:23 3
        
        That's due to the way eliminations are structured. - Dignan Aug 18, 17:28 1
        
        I absolutely agree. What happened last season was deplorable. - David Aug 18, 17:29
        
        Hmm, Wiki indicates Angelo made the finale. If I had to guess between the two, I would have said Tiffany. - David Aug 18, 17:26
        
        interesting, thank you -- nm - prayformojo Aug 18, 16:36 4
        
        BTW, if I had known you were going to Hawaii, I would have suggested that you eat at Sheldon Simeon's restaurant. - David Aug 18, 16:41 3
        
        We weren't on Maui, but I'll remember this if we ever get back there -- nm - prayformojo Aug 18, 16:45 2
        
        Did you do any island hopping? -- nm - David Aug 18, 16:47 1
        
        Not this time - prayformojo Aug 18, 16:50
  - Carla Hall has been since them as well. - Kim Pine Aug 18, 16:21 1
    - (I'm wrong. She was the season before them.) -- nm - Kim Pine Aug 18, 16:35
