\nAmerica competition. Presenting the two contenders: East Coast
\nConference winner John Critchley of Urbana in Washington, DC and West
\nCoast Conference winner Kurt Ramborger of ViUDA Bistro in Buda, TX. The

\nHottest Chef in America) in the pantheon of chef hotness. The vote,
\nthis way:<\/p>\n

Note: Poll closes at 11AM EST, Tuesday March 6th, and the winner will<\/em>
