Last Saturday I competed in the risotto challenge. Me and 14 other contestants went head to head for best dish. The challenge was a lot of fun and it was great to see so many familiar faces but also meet a bunch of new ones.
I did not win, nor place, but I was doing it for the love of food and friends who love food, not for a prize. Noah, my competition neighbor won judges first prize. I will let Cathy explain the rest of the contestants and their dishes along with the winners over on her blog. She will do a much better job anyway.
Next challenge I hear is hotdogs. Stay tuned.
