Chamberlain High School’s Culinary Operations Academy held its first annual “A Taste of Culinary” fundraiser on Oct. 13. This Iron Chef-style event paired COA students with local restaurant chefs and culinary schools to form 10 teams. The chef teams were asked to create tasting portions for approximately 150 to 200 guests. Guests judged each team on taste, booth presentation and customer service by leaving a tip that best reflected their overall experience. The team with the most moola was declared the winner. (All of the proceeds benefited COA.) Participating restaurants and culinary schools included Carrabba’s Italian Grill, Outback Steakhouse, Hula Bay, Johnson & Wales University,
The Art Institute of Tampa, The Melting Pot, Sakana, Sweet Bay and Wayl of a Time Catering. Here were the challenge winners.
