Fabio was no great shakes to me. He was funny but he was no great
chef. Many of the dishes he thought were incredible turned out to be
least favorites and for good reason. His big win was for roast
chicken and potatoes. That's ridiculous, even if it was Linda's
request.

I thought the best-looking thing Fabio did was early in the series, when he
made carpaccio with "Spherical Kalamata Olives" and grilled lemon slices.
Nothing he made after that seemed to measure up to that standard.
