FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


National Culinary Students
Hope They Have the Recipe for Success:
Proceeds Benefit the Boys and Girls Club of Scottsdale
Wednesday, April 14, 2004

(Scottsdale, AZ) February 12, 2004 -- What is the recipe for success? Taste it for yourself on Wednesday, April 14th at the Culinary Student Competition Awards Dinner™. Honor outstanding culinary students from around the country while enjoying their award winning recipes on the beautiful Terrace Court at the Hyatt Regency Scottsdale at Gainey Ranch.

The mailbags are filling up as dozens of entries pour into the Scottsdale Culinary Festival office for judging in the National Culinary Student Competition for the best recipe. Countless student chefs throughout the nation will enter, but only two will be selected winners in this prestigious contest.

"These young chefs compete for the title of Student Culinary Master. It's really exciting to see the winners and sample their cuisine," says George Owen, Chairperson for the event. Students will be preparing their best dishes for the tasting in hopes of winning this high honor.

See these recipes come to life when you experience the winning creations from the Student Culinary Competition served as appetizers preceding an exquisite four course dinner prepared by Executive Chef Jim Palmeri which will be paired with premium Mondavi wines. The winning students will be introduced and presented with their $2,500 prizes.

Don't get up! Following dinner, dessert will be served as you rub elbows with chefs, guests, and the winners of the Student Culinary Competition. At evenings end, sit back and relax while appreciatively puffing on a fine cigar provided by Ford & Haig Cigars and taking in the sounds of guitarist Johnny Carrasco, completing your delightful evening of gourmet fare and satisfying and sinful dessert.

The event begins at 6:30 p.m. at the Hyatt Regency in Scottsdale. Tickets are $100 and can be purchased at www.ScottsdaleCulinaryFestival.org or call (480) 945-7193.
