Nina Compton daughter of former St. Lucia Prime Minster Sir John George Melvin Compton, (he served as prime minister on three occasions!) is off to a great start on Season 11 of Bravo’s hit series “Top Chef”.
The St. Lucian won the first elimination challenge with a turtle meatball curry and chutney. Now you know another chef-testant could not have pulled that off!!!
Nina Compton is currently the chef de cuisine at Scarpetta in Miami. She worked under Daniel Boulud. As a prime minister’s daughter, Compton has all of St. Lucia behind her. “If I let St. Lucia down it’s gonna crush me.”
The latest season of Bravo’s Top Chef kicked off last week Wednesday with Padma Lakshmi, Tom Colicchio, taking the cooking competition to New Orleans. “Top Chef – New Orleans” airs on Bravo TV Wednesdays at 10/9c.
