In 2009, the seventh annual S.Pellegrino™ Almost Famous ChefSM Competition brings together culinary students from 40 top schools around the U.S. and Canada. Our judges, including several nationally renowned chefs, will critique the competitors based on their cooking skills as well as potential star quality. In late January and early February, 10 regional competitions will trim the field to the 10 finalists who will compete for the title plus up to $20,000 in cash prizes and a paid apprenticeship under one of the chef judges.
