Padma Lakshmi Took the Sexiest Food Selfie in a Diner: "My Milkshake Brings All the Boys..."

The Bravo's Top Chef host has a thing for diners.

By Jenny Berg

When one is in Los Angeles for Emmys weekend, one must stop by Mel's Diner — or at least, that's the inside tip we gleaned from Padma Lakshmi's recent Instagram post. After all, the Bravo's Top Chef host made a milkshake at the Hollywood standby look really, really ridiculously good. 

How to Watch

Watch Top Chef Season 21 Wednesdays at 9/8c on Bravo and next day on Peacock.

Wearing an elegant, sea-green gown to the old-school diner, Padma settled into a booth to get a little provocative with a classic drive-in treat. Sipping a milkshake with her legs crossed in front of her — mind the gown's stratospheric slit! — Padma added a cheeky caption. 

"My milkshake brings all the boys to the awards," she wrote, tagging the 2018 Emmy Awards as the presumable reason for her visit to Los Angeles. (Bravo's Top Chef earned a nod in the Outstanding Reality-Competition at the awards show.)

Take a look at the photo, but be warned: Another side effect is wanting a milkshake with a cherry on top right now
