Top Chef Las Vegas 9/23

What a toss-up of an elimination. I was leaning towards Ash, to be perfectly honest.

Power rankings:

1. Michael
2. Bryan
3. Kevin
4. Jennifer
5. Eli
6. Ashley
7. Mike
8. Robin
9. Laurine
10. Ash

The top four are once again fairly interchangeable. Michael has only one Elimination Challenge win to Kevin's three (three!) and Bryan's two, but he's placed as a judge's favorite in every episode except the first. The concentration of power is a first for Top Chef; only those three chefs have won Elimination Challenges at the six-episode mark. Ashley has had some surprisingly strong episodes lately, but I don't see her becoming a dark horse a la Lisa or Carla.
