I know this is a food blog, but congratulations to the Vietnamese fire cracker Hung for winning Top Chef Season 3. From episode 1 and his Geoduck, Hung has been killing every quickfire and every elimination challenge. Hung’s flavor profiles were spot-on as he demonstrated a tremendous amount of soul in the finale. Sauce from lemongrass? It really was a window into his soul and a demonstration of the eloquence and technicality of his craft. What better way to impress the judges than with a coconut foam on his prawn dish, a real memorable and high point of the night. Hung made no salads, no duo’s, and was not sabotaged by his sous-chef; he was destined to win. Hung prepared delicious, well-executed dishes that impressed me, and I didn’t even taste the dishes! The only thing missing was saffron foam. Go Hung!
