This past weekend, I had the privledge and honor of judging a competition with @fight2feed and @culinaryfightclub!
.
I was joined by incredible contestants, judges and some delicious street food!!!! The weather gave us strong enough winds to blow away tents and a torrential down pour right during judging!
.
But no one was phased. We all got soaked and welcomed the food even with a few rain drops :)
.
There were so many talented chefs but 2 incredible women won and go take the cake they were both some of Chicago’s finest in blue! 2 well deserving police officers won with their rendition of little fried dough balls filled with delicious and saucy pork. Who said that women can’t be chefs 😜😜😜
