I was sad, if not surprised, to see Sandy go home. I would have rather seen Joey go, but she wasn’t going to win, so it didn’t matter much.
Sandy was hampered by her concept. Each week, when everyone else only had to create, make, and serve one new dish, Sandy had to make two, a sinner and a saint. The worst part is, I think she vocalized her concept in the most understandable way this evening- I want to give people choices, make it so that everyone can get what they want, decadent or healthy, at the same restaurant.
