Prince George, B.C.-  The Canadian Culinary  Team that  will be heading to the 2016 Culinary Olympics,  is making a return visit to CNC  in Prince George.

The team is  preparing for the  2016 competition in  Erfurt Germany, and will  be  offering up  its specialty dishes on October 5th  at CNC  in  the Going for Gold Soiree fundraiser.

 “We are extremely lucky to have the privilege of hosting Culinary team Canada again,” said Professional Cook Instructor, Chef Ron Christian. “They are internationally recognized chefs and their cuisine is some of the best in the world. We hope that members from our community will take advantage of this rare opportunity. It will be an experience that they will never forget.”

Culinary Team Canada came to Prince George in October 2013 before competing at the Salon Culinaire Mondial event in Basel, Switzerland.  After appearing at CNC, the team went on to win the Gold Medal in the cold table competition and a Silver Medal in the hot kitchen competition in Basel.

“We are truly happy to be coming to Prince George,” said Culinary Team Canada manager, JC Felicella. “The support CNC and the community gives us is amazing. It’s an honor to be cooking for an appreciated group.”
