Just saw the next S.Pellegrino Young Chef applications are live, asking for a signature dish photo, recipe, and a short bio. As a culinary student, I’m looking to sharpen my competition chops and build my network — anyone else applying and up for swapping feedback or doing a mock tasting? I’m planning a practice run in our campus demo kitchen Tuesday at 6 pm; happy to share notes.
I’m in for Tuesday 6 pm — bring a tasting rubric; tighten your ‘short bio’; record plating to check timing.
I can help dial in the ‘signature dish photo’ — bring a matte white plate and we’ll shoot by the window; I’ll bring a small LED so it doesn’t read beige-on-beige. @miller77 good call on process; want a quick 30-second ‘why this dish’ pitch after tasting?
