She doesn't care much for Chef Crenn, and the feeling is mutual. I
noticed this week that Chef C criticized Freitag's dish, so Freitag
turned around and did the same to Chef C. Pretty funny.... I think
she's taken grumpy lessons from Alex Guarnischelli, or vice versa.
When she's amused by something she seems very charming.

I didn't think much of the chef who took all the grape leaves for no
reason - and when he got criticized for the strong odor that
infiltrated his finished dish, I thought, "Karma!" He should count on
his chef abilities instead of playing a juvenile game to try and
win.
