Chefs in Wales battle for £2,000

The National Chef of Wales 2010 is inviting chefs to put their skills to the test with £2,000 on offer as the winning prize.

The winner will also be rewarded with a trophy and the coveted title. The runner up will go home with £1,000.

The Welsh Culinary Association (WCA) is encouraging chefs of all ages to put their names forward for this contest, which is sponsored jointly by the Welsh Assembly Government and Hybu Cig Cymru / Meat Promotion Wales.

Entry is open to chefs of all ages who must work or study in Wales. They are challenged to devise their own creative menu for a three-course dinner for four, including some True Taste winning products.

Application forms are now available from the WCA or they can be downloaded from the association's website at www.welshculinaryassociation.com. Chefs have until November 2 to return the forms with a £30 entry fee, which includes a year's membership of the WCA.

Two qualifying heats will take place - Coleg Ystrad Mynach on Friday, November 13 and Deeside College, Connah's Quay on Friday, November 20.
