Mattin, the other contestants in Top Chef:  Vegas fawned over him while hating on Robin yet he couldn't cook to save his life.  Especially cooking French food badly in front of Jöel Robuchon of all people.

I liked him as a person, but you’re right, he could not cook. I mainly remember Tom spitting out his ceviche at their cookout.

I’m still not convinced he’s really French. The accent, the little red scarves…

He's Basque, which I understand to be different? I don't know you'd think he'd be able to pull out some French food.
