Everything you ever wanted to know about how they make Iron Chef:

Diary of an Iron Chef

How Peter Kelly beat celebrity chef Bobby Flay at his own game, the grill.

Chef Jose Garces is the Next Iron Chef. The judges didn't seem too particularly thrilled with either choice, as if there was some fundamental beak-down in the system. As Diana noticed, it was pretty obvious Garces was going to win. Why? Because he was able to banter with Alton Brown while cooking whereas Chef Metah didn't answer any questions at all. As I mentioned before, being an Iron Chef is about more than just being a great versatile cook, it's about being a performer. (Even though "performance" never factored overtly into one of the challenges.) Garces was clearly the better performer. (And he's the minority they were looking for.)

  1. I think it's less "As Diana noticed" and more "As Diana kept bitching about THE ENTIRE HOUR."

In 1789, the governor of Australia granted land and some animals to James Ruse in an experiment to see how long it would take him to support himself. Within 15 months he had become self sufficient. The area is still known as Experiment Farm. This is my Experiment Farm to see how long it will take me to support myself by writing.
