Epicurean World Master Chef Olympics

This is what I enjoyed for dinner last night 1830-2330 at the Park Cities Club here in Dallas...which made it difficult to get up at 0430 this morning for my boot camp workout 0530-0630.

The event was a training dinner for the American team who will attend the Epicurean World Master Chef Olympics in Stockholm, Sweden, in 2013.

Attached menu, team chef bios, and grading sheets.

We diners (75 invitees) also graded the meal courses IAW the grading sheets.

The chefs explained their philosophy for and how they prepared each course, and the judges also explained what they were looking for and their expectations. Our grading sheets/comments are used to help the chefs develop their program for the competition next year.

If you know anybody who is a member of Chaine des Rotisseurs and get a chance to attend one of these events, I suggest you do so.

D - do you now any of these chefs?

And so it goes...

Richard

Very eclectic! I would have settled for a plate of greasy enchiladas and a Dos Equis....

Did I miss something

Did I miss a score sheet on the selection of wines that complimented the meal?
