In New York, Ill walk down the street and someone will say, Nice show, and thats it. If Im at a food festival, its open season. – Tom Colicchio

You can buy a box of low-fat macaroni and cheese made with powdered nonsense. Im not worried if Im using four different cheeses and its high in fat. Its real food. Thats whats more important. – Tom Colicchio

We are not really privy to all that crazy stuff that goes on in the show. I go to work, eat, and talk about food. The wild things happen when we arent around. I expected Top Chef to last three or four seasons and we are now shooting season ten. – Tom Colicchio
