So, I'm in a really big culinary program, as I mentioned in the post just previous to this one.
Recently, about a third of all of our students went to State competition. We had two teams that were competeing in the cooking section which included making a three course meal, two plates of each dish, in one hour. They were teams of 4 plus one alternate. Then we had two teams on the management part. That consists of one group of four facing off with another group of four and seeing who answers the most questions in a Jeopardy style of play and then where they have to annalyze a problem at a restaurant and tell a panel of judges what each of their team members would do if they were the head chef, or manager or whatever in that situation. Finally, we had two kids in the edible centerpiece part of the competition. They had 45 minuets to make an awesome centerpiece all out of stuff you can fruits and veggies.
Also, one of my best buds went as a manager person. Yay!
Anywhooooo. We won 1st and 2nd in Centerpiece. Boo-YAH!! And we got 1st and 3rd in management which means we're going to Nationals with THAT. And finally, we got 1st and 2nd in the Culinary part!!!! Rock ON!!!! So, our 1st place team is also going to Nationals.
Man. We did good.
