The Web site for the award-winning alternative weekly, the Philadelphia City Paper.
Which Philly pastry chefs would you like to see on Top Chef: Just Desserts?
Last week, the irrepressible Bravo network announced that they're picking up Top Chef: Just Desserts, a spin-off of our favorite cooking competition show featuring pastry chefs battling for sweet-tooth supremacy. Let's gloss over, for a moment, your desire to either a) celebrate more Top Chef in your life or b) complain about too much Top Chef in your life to address a more pressing question � there's a casting call for the show at NYC's Craftsteak this coming Sunday, Nov. 8, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Which local pastry chefs/dessert specialists do you think would do the most damage?
We've provided our list after the jump. Please share your thoughts/picks in the comments.
- Cedric Barberet, Le Bec-Fin
- Krystal Weaver, Sonata
- Jessie Prawlucki, Fond
- Matthew Maslowski, XIX
- Danielle Konya, Vegan Treats
- Eddy Hales, The Fountain
- Tom Block, Naked Chocolate
- Christina Diekewicz, Union Trust
- Monica Glass, 10 Arts
- Ann Giles, Garces Restaurant Group
- Peter Woolsey, Bistrot La Minette
Danielle Konya! Her desserts are to die for!!! Go Danielle!!!
Danielle Konya, of Vegan Treats. Best - Desserts - Ever!
Krystal Weaver is a young talented pastry chef. She would be a great pic since she has competition experience from the culinary olympics. She is a fierce competitor.
Krystal Weaver is phenomenal new talent. Her desserts and knowledge of the pastry industry are excellent!
Yeah - this is top chef -- I'd love to see the vegan treats girl handle the bacon challenge. Or for that matter a simple angel food cake. she'll be off in the first episode.
Krystal Weaver from Sonata deserves a serious look. Her talent is obvious with every desert she creates.
Danielle from Vegan Treats easily has the best personality and "look" for television. They don't need more non-descript faces/personalities on that show.
DANIELLE KONYA!!!! I am not vegan, but Vegan treats are unbelievably delicious. It is amazing what this women can do.
Danielle Konya, Vegan Treats she will obliterate everyone else with her AWESOME desserts. GO VEGAN!!!
my vote is for danielle from vegan treats! she is creative, confident and and has a great personality. and her desserts are so amazing!
Danielle Konya, Vegan Treats OBVIOUSLY... come on, the rest of the list is "ummm whooo?"
danielle, danielle, danielle!!! her desserts are delicious, beautiful, creative, and did i already say delicious. she's got personality to spare and is an absolute doll. vegan treats take over the world!!!
Danielle Konya would be amazing!! Her desserts look and taste incredible and her personal style is stunning! That would make an incredible episode!! Check out her website: http://www.vegantreats.com for examples of the creativity behind her desserts
Danielle Konya, Vegan Treats
I'd love to see Danielle Konya blow everyone else out of the water without breaking a sweat.
Danielle Konya, period.
Danielle Konya is not only the most creative and talented of the bunch, but she would be the best candidate for Top Chef because she certainly is the most interesting to viewers in terms of her absolutely stunning personality and uniqueness! Check out her website: www.vegantreats.com. Her treats are works of art both in appearance and taste. She takes on challenges and surpasses every single conception. She has my vote and warrants all of yours.
Definitely Danielle Konya. I fell in love with her desserts from the first moment I tasted them. Definitely would give mOst pastry chefs a run for their money!
Only one woman does the menu for all of garces rest group's restaurants, Ann Giles. She's pretty amazing, really broad spectrum
Monica Glass will definitely give the other chef-testants a run for their money with her fine desserts!
Monica Glass from 10 arts, yummy cupcakes!
Had desserts at 10Arts....EXQUISITE!!!!! Monica Glass gets my vote
Zoe from Whipped Bakeshop
I'm a big fan of the pastries at Garces's restaurants. Isn't it one person who designs the pastries for each place?
What about Kate Honeyman from Buddakan? She's been nominated for a James Beard Award for the past two years.
Only had desserts from him once, but Peter Woolsey has some serious pastry chops
