The Salt Lake City chef of
Forage proved that he could, indeed, forage amid the rubble of an abandoned tent town to come up with a restaurant-quality meal. ("Beef tongue, baby, beef tongue!")
He
came off as cool and confident, even during the cooking showdown where he did
a one-bite amuse bouche of chicken hearts, burning off bits of his cutting
board to add smoky flavor.
But it's obvious that some of the other chefs perceive him
as a threat, that person standing in the way of the $50,000 prize. As he said last night, he knows they will be gunning for him, but he displayed a fearless, a "bring
it on" attitude.
