MILLIGAN COLLEGE, TN (February 18, 2005) — Students and faculty will go head to head in a culinary contest next week when the cafeteria hosts an Iron Chef competition. The Feb. 23 event is part of the cafeteria’s International night and will begin at 5 p.m.
Dave Taylor, director of food services, said he got the idea from the Food Network’s hit television show, Iron Chef.
Each team will receive their ingredients 10 minutes before they begin cooking. They must prepare one International main dish and one side dish in 25 minutes. No written notes or recipes are allowed.
The student team consists of Eric England, Katy Head, Jessica Conn and Justin Peyton. The faculty team consists of Traci Smith, director of student success, Bob Mahan, associate professor of accounting, Bill Greer, associate professor of economics and business, and Melodie Perry, office manager for the business faculty.
A panel of local restaurateurs will judge the dishes. They include Julia Hanneken from Atlanta Bread Company, Allen Howell from Dixie BBQ, and Hoovy McGuirt and Andy Osbolt from Barberitos Southwestern Grille and Cantina. The food will be judged on are taste and appearance.
