This Wednesday, May 18, M6 is broadcasting a new episode of this thirteenth season of Top Chef. The former candidates – and winners – of the culinary competition, Norbert Tarayre, Mohamed Cheikh, Pierre Augé and Merouan Bounekraf engage in Télé Star on this edition.
The thirteenth season of Top chef at his best. This Wednesday, May 18, M6 is broadcasting the fourteenth week of competition. They are not only five more to hope for their place in the quarter-finals. On the same channel, a little earlier in the day, Norbert Tarayre faces a former Top chef in Chefs at home. This week, it’s Noëmie Honiat who is trying to beat Jean Imbert’s former sidekick in her favorite field: culinary challenges. On the occasion of the press conference of this program, TV Star wanted to know if the elders of Top chef remained keen on this program. Are they closely following this edition of the prestigious M6 culinary competition? Nay. In their defense, it is difficult when you run a restaurant to follow the program broadcast in prime-time, or in full during the service. “I tried to look“, assures us Mohamed Cheikh, the last winner to date. Especially since he wanted to watch Top chef with “a different eye“, since he participated and even won his twelfth edition.
“But my schedule makes it hard to follow“, he justifies himself. And to admit: “In addition, the two people I know have unfortunately been eliminated“. What discourage him from continuing the viewing. Same story on the side of Pierre Augé. “I was gone to watch it this season but i’m so tired right now i’m falling asleep“, concedes the finalist of the first season and winner of the fifth who affirms “love” this show. “It’s a great show, I enjoy watching it.“, assures us Pierre Augé who is impressed with the level”tight“candidates of this edition. Small disappointment all the same from the second episode of this year: the elimination of Renaud Ramamourty. “He started with me, he was 17 on the very first Top Chef“, recalls Pierre Augé, before entrusting: “I felt motivated to go further. I was a little disappointed for him. Plus, her kitchen looked great.“. An early elimination that served as a reminder shot: “It really doesn’t matter“.
Why Merouan Bounekraf has “never watched” Top Chef
Norbert Tarayre does not watch Top chef only thanks to extracts seen on social networks. And the least we can say is that he was marked by the first dish concocted by Wilfried Romain : “A dessert around langoustine“, he remembers instantly. So, when he met Philippe Etchebest, Norbert Tarayre could not help but ask a thousand questions to the chef. Since participating in the tenth season of Top chefMerouan Bounekraf has meanwhile “never watched again while I love this show and have always watched it“, he admits to us. In question? He finds “weird” to follow this program, of which he now knows all the workings and backstage. Failing to know all the manufacturing secrets, we salivate behind our screen every week.
