PADMA LAKSHMI: A RARE COMBINATION OF EXPERTISE

Top Chef host Padma Lakshmi is unusual because she started out as a model and ended up a food expert. Actually, that probably makes her everyman’s dream girl. She’s written several books about food and her Emmy winning reality series Top Chef has been on the air since 2005. Padma’s lookalike daughter Krishna Lakshmi Dell, 7, was the center of a custody battle with Padma’s ex-boyfriend venture capitalist Adam Dell. Agreements were finally reached and now Padma and Adam are friends again – maybe more.

TOP CHEF HOST PADMA LAKSHMI LIKES IT HER WAY

#padmalakshmi #janetcharlton

Having Top Chef television personality and sometime vegetarian Padma Lakshmi visit their tiny mall carry-out restaurant The Veggie Grill in LA, proved to be both a blessing and a curse for the chef. Padma, who has written several cookbooks, selected the “All Hail Kale Salad” at $8.45 from the menu, but she wanted it prepared exactly to her specification. She wanted fresh kale, not marinated kale, cabbage, fresh corn, but no corn salsa and no tomatoes, extra walnuts, and the LA mantra “dressing on the side.” The chef aimed to please – he labored to fulfill her every desire and other customers had to wait longer for their orders, but no one cared because they were all thrilled to see the glamorous former model. And yes, she thanked them profusely.

PADMA LAKSHMI’S OUTFIT SHOULD HAVE STAYED IN LAS VEGAS

Is anybody else as appalled by Padma Lakshmi’s outfit as we are? She turned up with billionaire Ted Forstmann at the Met Costume Gala Monday in this flashy gown. The Top Chef host just had a baby on February 20, but she doesn’t have to show off her figure in such an extreme way. Padma is capable of looking very elegant. This dress is too tight, too shiny, too cheezy looking. The garment is more suitable for a Las Vegas Showgirl of the Year contest than a museum event.
Gwen Stefani, on the other hand, got it right.
