Le Chef Complet Open House will Highlight New Innovative Kitchen Tools Created by Local Inventor

Le Chef Complet on Brant Street will have a special guest at their open house on Saturday October 30th. All eyes will be on local inventor Greg Galante, president of Kitchen Innovations Inc., as he demonstrates his latest culinary inventions -- The Pastry Pro and The Gourmet Blender -- two innovative kitchen tools that are already garnering critical acclaim from professionals and lay-chefs alike. Patrick Plunkett, owner of Le Chef Complet, will be opening the festivities at 12 noon. Burlington Mayor, Rob MacIsaac, will also be present to enjoy the plentiful food, hands-on demonstrations and discussions with Galante -- Burlingtons very own culinary inventor. All are invited to attend.

Burlington, ON (PRWEB) October 23, 2004 -- The Pastry Pro and The Gourmet Blender are welcome additions to Le Chef Complets inventory of quality kitchenware. The new tools were first envisioned two years ago when Galante, an investment banker by training and chef at heart, grew increasingly frustrated at his efforts to create a perfect pastry. Every time I made pastry it turned out like shoe leather" Galante recalls. After discovering that the standard wire model of pastry blender hadnt been improved upon since its creation in 1927, Galante committed himself to finding a better way. When he found it, he was elated by his discovery. I felt like Galileo. I knew I had it." What makes The Pastry Pros design so revolutionary are its clog-free, diamond-shaped cutting blades and its rigid stainless steel frame. Looking at these two blenders (The Gourmet Blender functions like The Pastry Pro but is used to blend or add texture to cooked vegetables and fruit), one is struck by their simplicity. The perfect blending results, however, are making the culinary world look twice.

Ian Gallacher, head of Cake and Pastry Culinary Arts at George Brown College in Toronto, said that he went from skeptical to amazed in 60 seconds. [It makes] easy, fool-proof pastry every time with tender results."
Richard Gould, President of Domestic Canada, is equally sold on Galantes inventions. These utensils will redefine what we think about hand pastry blenders currently in todays marketplace."

Le Chef Complet will have a large supply of Burlingtons latest culinary inventions on hand for its October 30th open house where Greg Galante will be present in-store to demonstrate The Pastry Pro and The Gourmet Blender and to answer any questions local gourmands may have.
