The “Top Chef” season based in Portland has already asked its contestants to cook with coffee, beer and fresh produce. But as anybody who lives here knows, there’s nothing more Portland-y than rain. So, it made perfect sense that Episode 5 of “Top Chef” Season 18 saw the judges and locals gathered at a pop-up drive-in, with occasional downpours dousing the cars as the cooks whipped up movie-themed dishes.
