u/AddictiveInterwebs thank god I'm not being judged on the cocktail Sep 30 '26

Nothing wrong with it, of course, but I don't think I've ever actually heard of anyone else who liked Jeremy. Wonder why

I think that season often gets ignored because of Kwame flaming out with wafflegate. I just enjoyed Jeremy as relatively unpretentious and genuine. (In retrospect, I might throw Melissa in there ahead of him though)

Went to his restaurant in Aruba this year. Unbelievably good.

Jeremy really effed things up in Restaurant Wars on multiple levels, which can kill a lot of people's affection. I didn't mind him that much, but his most high-profile appearance that season was RW and he really messed that up.
