The BC Chefs Association proudly presents the ninth annual Citytv Master Chef Competition (Iron Chef style) that will take place at EAT! Fraser Valley on Sept 16-18, 2011 where 17 chefs from British Columbia will compete for the title in a head-to-head heated competition witnessed by an inquisitive audience. Black box cooking competitions are considered the most challenging of culinary competitions because the food content of the boxes is not revealed prior to the event. The pressure of competing is compounded by the unknown ingredients. The chef has to accept the challenge of devising a main course from the Black Box by using only the foods the box contains. Once open, it's up to the chef's creative talents to come up with an innovative idea and prepare it in the 35 minute time allotted. Competitors will be judged by culinary professionals, on composition, creativity, correct preparations, service practicality, taste, proper utilization of ingredients, presentation and consistency. Distinguished members of the BC Chefs Association will be acting as the official judges during the three days of competitions: this year's judges are Chef Thomas Dietzel, ChefEmployment.com, Chef Sylvain Cuerrier CCC, River Rock Casino, Chef Kris Kabush, Executive Chef Hart House Restaurant, Chef Boban Kovachevich, Corporate Chef Executive Hotels and judging coordinator Chef Michael Pinter CCC, Executive Chef, Seton Villla. Dudson China's David McIlwraith will once again act as the Master of Ceremonies for the competitions.
We wish to thank our sponsors House of Knives,
Dudson China, Shun & Wusthoff for the fabulous prizes they have provided
for the Master Chef Competition winner and runner-up.

WE ARE GREEN AT HEART! We're making every effort to minimize EAT! Vancouver's impact on our environment. The 2011 EAT! Vancouver festival is bullfrogpowered with 100% green electricity. This means that Bullfrog Power will inject carbon-free green power onto the British Columbia electricity grid to match the amount of electricity used by this event. Bullfrog’s green power is sourced exclusively from wind power and low-impact hydro producers who meet or exceed the federal government's EcoLogoM standard for renewable energy. The Vancouver Convention Centre has a living roof, seawater heating and cooling, on-site water treatment and fish habitat built into the foundation of the West Building make it one of the "greenest" convention centres in the world. |
