Gluten-free Chef of the Year competition 2010

The Gluten-free Chef of the Year Competition is back for the third year and we’re very excited to have celebrity resident chef on ITV’s This Morning, Phil Vickery, as our judge. We will also be working in association with the Institute of Hospitality and the Craft Guild of Chefs with support and prizes from Sodexo and 3663.

If you enter as an up and coming chef you could win a stage at Pennyhill Park working alongside Michelin starred chef Michael Wignall. If you are a professional chef you could win a stage at Gleneagles with twice Michelin starred chef Andrew Fairlie. Both categories could also win a set of knives, 12 months membership of the Craft Guild of Chefs or the chance to develop a signature dish with Sodexo.

What do you have to do to enter

Simply design recipes for a three course gluten-free menu.  If you are shortlisted then you will need to recreate the menu in a 90 minute live cook off to serve to four people.  See our hints and tips page for more information.

ICCAS 2011

Venue: Bournemouth University, UK

Culinary tradition and skill have for centuries been regarded as an art, however, more recently science and technology have played an increasingly important role. For some academics, pushing at the forefront of knowledge, the sphere has been widened even further and health is also now considered in terms of the broader hospitality (foodservice) sector as well as within the well-being and tourism paradigm. As a result, there are substantial opportunities for inter-professional collaboration where learners learn with, from, and about each other in order to work together better.

Objectives

The Seventh Conference aims to build on the success of past programmes by drawing together individuals and organisations from a variety of disciplines, and where experts and practitioners can exchange ideas and develop themes of mutual interest and benefit. In 2011, the Conference is ‘coming home’ to its origin and we are delighted to invite delegates back to Bournemouth University on the South Coast of England, where the host will be the Foodservice and Applied Nutrition Research Group, part of the International Centre for Tourism and Hospitality Research.
