On his facebook page Yukon Cornelius said he was offered a spot on the show but he declined. His restaurant here in Atlanta is doing very well, and he's running the kitchen most nights.

Yeah, that's the first time I've heard someone argue that Stax was glossier than Motown. Both are great, but Stax is definitely grittier, rawer, and more unabashedly southern.

What she doesn't realize is that ETrade sent the $100M check to Lindsey Buckingham by mistake.

Yep, another mid-80's Chicago teen who can verify weekly trips to WaxTrax. The mid to late 80's scene wasn't as indie-douchey as folks may think. Lots of folks who were deeply into the Chicago DIY-Punk/industrial/house scenes didn't look or act the part — no one cared.

Swing that Gospel Axe for the mass-suicide-cult win.

I'm in Atlanta too and can attest to Woodfire being a great restaurant. To me Woodfire is a slightly downscale version of Bacchanalia and Restaurant Eugene. If you've been to either of those restaurants then you know this is a big compliment to what Kevin's done at Woodfire.

The "Love Theme" from Robin Hood is amazingly melancholy for a Disney cartoon — "Once we watched a lazy world go by, now the days seem to fly, life is brief, but when its gone, love goes on and on." For a somewhat minor Disney film, Robin Hood had a stellar soundtrack.

He did fail (the restaurant wars episode) and he took it like a champ. I think Kevin's pretty human, at least compared to Bryan V who's far more of a robo-cook than Kevin. Hell, any gourmet chef who still brags about his horseshoe skilz and downing 130 hot wings in an hour has my support.

It looks like Thomas Keller is the guest judge next week
In terms of difficulty, getting Keller on Top Chef was probably just short of scheduling a Beatles reunion. No way Tommy C. was going to let Robin cook for Keller.

Yeah, without his mom around, Eli should have asked Robin what to wear.

I love Wilco and love "Spiders" but how can your list have "Spiders" but leave out "Halleluhwah" by Can which is a superior song in every way. It's like you put the copy on the list and left off the original. I know other posters have mentioned Can but I really don't get this glaring omission. Otherwise, I give…

Apparently this collaboration came about when the rest of Radiohead refused to play shows only wearing socks.

I get that Pavement's not everyone's cup of tea, but Slanted and Enchanted was my early 90's soundtrack. Just one fanboy's opinion, but Slanted, Westing, even Crooked Rain have held up better than most of Nirvana's catalogue.

Way to stick up for abusers Chris!
When you think about it, shouldn't Rhianna be apologizing for smacking Chris Brown's fist with her face. What a double standard!

Sorry to burst your bubble Soce, but I've crunched some numbers on this and have determined that Golden Oreos are in fact 2.639 times better than the original. You're entitled to your opinion but you can't argue against a scientific fact.

Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer not shitty lawyer. Me good lawyer!

They also left out the slide that says "Haters — Federal prosecuters be all like hatin' " and then arrows pointing to circles that say things like "used honda civic", "crappy government pay", "low rent apartment" etc . . . .

Another Atlantan here. Kevin's restaurant, Woodfire Grill, is outstanding. When Stephanie from season 4 kept talking about simple clean flavors, Woodfire Grill was what I thought of. Atlanta's very underrated as a food city. Outside of New York, Chicago and Northern California, you won't find a better food city.

Considering that Dylan recorded two explicitly Christian gospel records during his "born again" phase, this is surprising how?

Being a southerner this whole debate between salty/greasy vs. sugary/gooey is a bit lost on me. To wit, the sausage/bacon biscuit with syrup on top. See, can't we all just get along!
