Join Seattle's celebrity chefs for The Bite Cooks! presented
by Comcast and DEX.
For the past five years, this high-energy cooking demonstation has been
the most exciting attraction at the Bite™, and this year will be even
hotter! The event brings together in one venue an elite group of
Seattle area chefs for cooking demonstrations that are high energy and
creative presentations on a large, professionally designed stage by
Bradlee Distributors Inc. Add new recipe ideas to your repertoire
and take the chance to see how your favorite chefs make that special
dish! In 2008, we are thrilled to welcome new emcee Thierry Rautureau-
The Chef in the Hat!!!, of Rover's. Thierry brings years of
culinary experience and a new enthusiasm to this year's event, and we
can't wait to see him in action! |
The
Bite Cooks! is an exciting and interactive stage show where local
celebrity chefs test their speed and creativity in front of a live
audience! This is more than just a "cooking
demonstration," it's where the culinary arts become "show-biz."
Celebrity chef demonstrations are 30 minutes and audience members will
have a chance to comment and ask questions of these culinary artists at
the end. So much to see, your taste buds and minds will sizzle!
The Bite
Cooks!
is located in the Alki Room which is on the north side of
KeyArena on the Seattle Center campus. It is adjacent to The Alley,
hosted by Tom Douglas. A special thanks to Food Services
of America for providing our chefs with all of their cooking spices and
utensils.
Don't miss your favorite chef! The Bite Cooks!
is proud to welcome print sponsor Northwest Home Magazine. Don't forget to check out the July/August issue of the
