Newport Beach, CA (PRWEB) February 25, 2015 -- Palace Entertainment, one of the leading leisure park operators in the United States, will be hosting its 2nd annual Chef Toque Challenge on Feb. 27, 2015 in Walnut, Calif. featuring a new judge - Celebrity Chef, Jamie Gwen.
Each year Palace Entertainment brings together its 22 Food & Beverage Directors to discuss the past year’s performance and next year’s initiatives, as well as hosts the Chef Toque Challenge, an annual “new menu feature” competition.
During the Chef Toque Challenge, Food & Beverage Directors are divided into two teams and asked to compete in three categories: Starter, Entrée, and Dessert. With each course containing food items from the Palace Entertainment Preferred Vendor lists with the exception of produce, the winner of each category will be featured at all Palace Parks as a special menu item for 2015. Categories will be judged on taste, presentation and creativity. Chef Jamie Gwen will be joining Palace Entertainment’s Vice President of Food & Beverage Albert Cabuco and Sysco Corporation Regional Vice President, Multi Unit Sales, Debbie Martin in judging the two team’s courses.
Jamie Gwen is a Celebrity Chef, Certified Sommelier, Lifestyle Expert and four-time Cookbook Author. Most recently, Jamie served as a Judge for the Fox TV’s “Master Chef” alongside Gordon Ramsey, Graham Elliot and Joe Bastianich. With Jamie’s expertise in all things culinary and recent victory on the Food Network’s “Cutthroat Kitchen,” Palace Entertainment is humbled to have her on the judging panel for 2015.
With a new judge to help stir up the competition this year, Palace Entertainment is excited to see what delicious dishes the chefs will present. The Chef Toque Challenge will occur at Sysco Los Angeles Friday, Feb. 27, 2015, 1:00pm – 4:00pm.
