Teen chefs from the culinary arts program at Lenawee Intermediate School District Tech Center in Adrian, Mich., teamed up to cook with a trio of the nation’s top chefs in Chicago recently at the National Restaurant Association’s annual food show. Students cooked with chefs Rick Bayless, Stephanie Izard and David Burke, using ingredients and materials they sourced from vendors at the event and cooked on site – all in just 90 minutes.
“It was a great experience,” senior Luke Pawson told Erik Gable of the Daily Telegram. “We walked around, talked to a lot of the vendors, got our names out there and tried to make contacts with people and networked a lot.”
