Detroit: The City Of Chefs II

As with the first film, in Detroit: The City of Chefs II we will hear from those who impacted our culinary heritage in Metro Detroit as leading chefs and restaurateurs. We will gain an understanding of who James Beard was and why today’s most coveted culinary arts award was created in his honor. We learn the value of culinary competitions. Why have so many of our Michigan chefs have competed and continue to compete on the global stage? No state has ever had more certified Master Chefs than Michigan. What does it take to pass an exam that tests a chef’s global cooking knowledge?
