Top Chef Walt Disney World Style
If you like Top Chef on Bravo and you’ll be at Epcot’s International Food and Wine Festival in Walt Disney World this fall, then you’re in luck! A Top Chef-esque competition will take place during the Food and Wine Festival at Epcot where top chefs from across the United States will compete to become members of the creme de la creme culinary team that will compete at the all important Bocuse d’Or World Cuisine Competition in Lyon, France in January 2009.
The Bocuse d’Or World Cuisine Competition is held every two years and is often referred to as the “Culinary Olympics”. Eight semi-finalist teams will compete at Epcot for spots on the final team that will go to France. Throughout the competition, they’ll create dishes that Disney guests can watch them prepare and even taste! At the end of the competition, the panel of top chefs will choose the winners. The entire competition ends with a huge dinner and awards ceremony.
Sounds very cool! You can read all the details about the competition on the Orlando Sentinel’s cooking blog. No word on whether Chef Tom Colicchio or Padma will be there though.
