Chef Tre is great! Why did they bump him? Lots of the mistakes on the show were still on some of his kitchenmates. Sucks. But, keep working em Tre!

My fiance' and I watched Top Chef religiously when you were on and we were sooo disappointed when you were sent home. We were in shock. As you can see even Hung was upset, along with Hung we thought it would "BOIL" down to just you 2. I would like some advice on how to turn my passion of cooking into my own business and own a Black Supper Club in Cleveland, OH. I am 34 I have not yet gone to Culinary school but cooking is like breathing and I eventually want to change my career from the fianancial industry into cooking and becoming a TOP CHEF like you please give me advice.
