Iron Chef San Jose Summer 2009: Mango

Once again, I'm completely floored by the skills of the chefs in this competition!

Such imaginative uses of the secret ingredient - I'm definitely going to have to step up my game next time!

Congratulations to all the winners! Can't wait to see what you make next time.
