<h3>Al dente legumes trip up the latest <i>Top Chef</i> hopeful</h3>

    <p class="intro"><a href="http://www.bravotv.com/Top_Chef/season/4/bios//index.php?cat=chef&#38;p=antonia">Antonia Lofaso</a> seemed a surefire candidate for the final three, so everyone was surprised when she was sent packing. Was it the undercooked peas? And did she really snub Gail Simmons? The break in production of the show before the finale may have ultimately proved to be the downfall of Antonia, who took the time to open a new restaurant, <a href="http://www.chow.com/places/31540">Foxtail</a> in Los Angeles. With her mind elsewhere, she lost her mojo and let Lisa pass her by.</p>
