Chef Chris Wadsworth of Restaurant IPO

About the Cooking with Community® Coffee Contest:

We find more and more that coffee is being used as an ingredient, not only in desserts, but in savory meat dishes. Throughout the WYES SEASON OF GOOD TASTES dinners, chefs are asked to use Community coffee as an ingredient in one or more of their courses. Each guest will judge on presentation, taste, originality, and creativity of coffee usage. If the chef so chooses to accept the cooking with coffee challenge, the award-winner will receive a feature on WYES! All guests receive a free sample of coffee and are eligible to win a special gift from Community Coffee!

Previous winning Chefs of the Cooking with Community® Coffee Contest include:

2007 Chef Andrea Apuzzo of Andrea’s Restaurant in Metairie - Tiramisu
2008  Chef Tom Wolfe of Wolfe’s in the Warehouse in New Orleans - Tiramisu
