Tonight, Iron Chef Michael Simon was on-campus celebrating his victory on "The Next Iron Chef."

If you watched the series, of which most was filmed at the Culinary, you'd love this guy. He's very passionate, aggressive and down to earth. Of course, Chef John Besh and Chef Simon are both Culinary grads. The school has produced basically every winner of TV's best contests, which is really a testament to this being the best culinary school in the world.

Anyway, Chef Simon was crowned Iron Chef on Sunday night after besting Chef Besh in "challenge: swordfish" and he demonstrated one of his dishes he served during the finale, the sous vide swordfish shoulder.

Pretty cool, if I say so myself.
