way through regional cook-offs, a group of talented teen
chefs will converge in New York City this weekend to

up comfort foods, including roast chicken with pan gravy,
sautéed vegetable medley, and red bliss potatoes. A panel
of Master Chefs, professional and celebrity judges will
name the winner. In its fourth year, The
Art Institutes Best Teen Chef in America Competition is
offering students, and their families, an unprecedented
opportunity to jump-start an education in the culinary
arts. Students can win a full tuition scholarship to study
at one of the prestigious Art Institutes that offers a
culinary arts program. |
