Last week it was all about the Top Chef; this week it’s onto the Food Network version – Next Food Network Star.  Is anyone watching this and, if so, what are your thoughts so far?

Personally, I’ve approached it with a tinge of bitterness since my fave chef blogger, Bren of Flanboyant Eats didn’t make the final cut.  This season, IMO, has had too much drama and way too much crying.  However, I am excited to see John Besh & Marcus Samuelsson as part of the dinner party attendees for next week’s episode.  I have to say this much, I knew something was up when I saw Marcus at the SOBE Food & Wine Festival with Food Network peeps in attendance. 

I wonder – is he headed over to Food Network and departing BET?
