It's a little bit lame that there's no casting in the middle part of the country. Couldn't they throw non-coastal chefs a bone and add Chicago into the mix?
Kirsten, it is likely that because this season was cast and filmed in Chicago, there is a surplus of chicago chefs. One interesting thing is that there is a lot of evidence that suggests that the next season will be shot at least in part outside of the U.S.
Not only that, but those parts of the country still attract and house the vast majority of cooking talent.
