Future Chefs Cookoff 2010 Photos Part I


Let the Cookoff begin!

It's photo weekend here at TBF featuring a slew of pics from the recent Future Chefs Cookoff 2010 held at Le Cordon Bleu in Cambridge. Regular readers will know all about this fabulous organization by now so just sit back and enjoy the foodie view. Remember, you can click on any picture to enlarge it and all Future Chefs are free to copy, save or share any photos here with family and friends.

Meanwhile, in another kitchen, Chef Bob Botchie of Myers + Chang leads the Juniors in preparing lunch for the crowd.




Look at the color of this asparagus! Perfect. A little-known fact reiterated at White House State Dinners: proper etiquette dictates it is perfectly acceptable to eat asparagus with one's hands!

More photos of the presentation plates will be posted tomorrow.
