Tenderloin For Iron Chef!

Woo Hoo! Fun Iron Chef class last night at the Cooks Warehouse. 4 Corporate Teams battling it out over the Secret Ingredient: Tenderloin. Lots of fun and lots of wine capped off a fierce and creative competition for bragging rights. Loved the "secret" team #5's entry. Check it out - no veggies, and a parsley bedecked Beer! Team #1 with the beautiful veggie platter (bottom right) and yummy tenderloin scored the win, with team #3 (diagonal asparagus) a close second.

Folks that Care for Kids are Good Cooks, too!

Saturday night found me teaching an Iron Chef Class to a group from the Childrens Hospital of Macon. Driving up from south of Atlanta, they were ready for a culinary challenge. Dividing up into 3 teams, they worked together to produce beautiful risotto dishes that were enjoyed by all! Take a look at these glamorous plates! The winner used lemon juice and zest to make the risotto pop. And, they did a great job with creativity - placing the risotto in wine glasses for the judges.
