While we’re still mourning Carla’s loss to Hosea in the season finale of Top Chef: New York, we have delightful news that was confirmed to us by the man himself yesterday.

Fabio is getting his own show.

That’s right, Season Five’s breakout star, the Italian Stallion, Fabio Viviani, is coming to a TV screen near you.

Fabio was my 2nd pick to win (after Carla) and I'm looking forward to see what he'll be cooking up on TV. Not only did his dishes look and sound good... he's not too bad himself.

When I saw this thread my first thought was....

They look a little alike, except one is a Italian chef, the other is a I beleive it was Nebraska or Iowa Hawg farmer, if memory serves me well I think there was a twin brother ?

When I saw this thread my first thought was....

Haha!! That's a good one!

Didn't he used to do the "I Can't Believe it's Not Butter" commercial?

Fabio (he was born in Italy) started off as the model, then modeled for the romance paper back books, now I think is was the Harlequin series. Then from there he went into television by appearing on if I remember right some of the variety shows, then into the commercial for the non butter. Can not find any info on a twin but he does have an older brother and younger sister. I do not find any info on the Hawg farm but for the life of me I remember seeing a show about him with pictures of him working on the the farm, and pictures of his brother who looked almost like his twin.

Thanks.

I think he's known to be quite the ladies' man on screen and off, or so I was told.

But I only remember seeing him in the non-butter commercial so far.
