Please join Chefs Daniel Boulud, Thomas Keller, and Jérôme Bocuse for an exciting day of culinary competition on Wednesday, June 8th at the Institute of Culinary Education in New York.
Since 2008, it has been a key mission for the Foundation to enable the best young talent in America to effectively train for the privilege and honor of representing the United States at the Bocuse d’Or in Lyon, France. The result of that patience and determination was realized, for the first time, in 2015 when Team USA stood on the podium in Lyon and held the Silver Bocuse, garnering the recognition and respect of the international culinary community.
The Foundation’s goal is to continue to build our legacy and to introduce more aspiring young cooks to the Bocuse d’Or. We are proud to announce our 3rd annual Young Chefs event this year, to identify up-and-coming culinary leaders and provide them with the opportunity to work alongside Team USA 2017.
In the past two years we have seen great young cooks who have also been supported by a Commis. In an effort to further recognize and inspire those embarking on their culinary career, we are pleased to announce the addition of a Commis Competition this year.
On June 8th, we invite you to enjoy signature dishes from Chef Boulud’s Feast and Fêtes and wines from Spire Collection, while watching 6 Young Chef teams and 3 Commis candidates compete in front of a panel of esteemed chefs from the Foundation’s Culinary Council.
