    They should have had battle offal a long time ago, but it was refreshing to finally see it. Beats the hell out of battle sugar or battle milk. Great show by both chefs.

    Chef, I greatly enjoyed watching your battle with Chef Symon, from an outsider perspective, you did a fantastic job. It was a real treat seeing my two favorite chefs together again, and obvious to all of us that you enjoyed yourselves as well. Just wanted to let you now how much I admire all that you are doing in your work and life, to bring people back to basics and truly learn to respect the animals and produce that provide sustanance and pleasure in each dining experience. Thank you, and please never give up the fight.

    That was one of the most entertaining battles I’ve seen in a while. I thought you both did an outstanding job. I felt that maybe Ruhlman was a bit unfair a couple of times, but overall they truly enjoyed your food.

    Hats off to you, Chris. That didn’t look easy at all, and your respect for one another shined right through.
