I don’t watch Masterchef. There’s just something about watching people make food I can’t eat that turns me off.
But it caught my eye for 3 hours an hour today.
Well, really, Luca Manfé caught my eye.
In this one episode of the last 3 finalists, one of his competitors tried to screw him over. 5 minutes later he lends a hand to this same person who really needed a stick of butter to complete her dish.
His response?
“I don’t think a piece of butter is going to make her dish stand out that much, if it does good for her I’m going home. Tomorrow I can still look myself in the mirror.”
What an astounding magnanimous Italian heart.
To see someone willing to literally throw away a quarter million dollars to do a good deed for someone who tried to eliminate him just moments ago, oh, I have so much hope in mankind.
Side note: Italians are hilarious.
More exciting side note: Can’t wait to blog about Jesus Culture L!ve in KL!
Thinking of: Luca Manfé, this is good tv, Devious Maids, Chris Quilala and how it overwhelms and satisfies my soul.
Just watched the Masterchef Season 4. Super impressed with Luca on his generosity and his humbleness
