2011 Cleveland Culinary Challenge

On November 3, 2011 Rock The House Entertainment Group was once again selected for the Cleveland Culinary Challenge team. This yearly fundraising event, sponsoring The Spirit of Cleveland and the Tri-C Hospitality School, is one of the most unique nights in Cleveland. Where else can you taste creations by local celebrity chefs such as Chef Dante Boccuzzi of Dante, Chef Doug Katz of fire food and drink, Chef Karen Small of Flying Fig and Chef Eric Williams of Momocho Mod Mex?

In addition to the established talent cooking that night, there was also a full team of culinary upstarts trying to prove they have what it takes to be the next talk of the town. The format of the night centered around a concept that fills up the line-up of a certain network: a cooking competition! Very esteemed judges including Susie Heller, author, television producer and recipe taster and Michael Ruhlman, author, journalist and Next Iron Chef judge.

Those lucky enough to attend were able to try a wide variety of items by Cleveland-based Pura Vida by Brandt. Many of the city’s most well-known restaurant and event industry leaders were present marking this event as one not to miss. Other highlights included Martini samples by Cleveland-based Crav Vodka, a variety of wines, and selections of small-batch Goose Island Beers.

Rock The House was very glad to continue to be part of the team that created this wildly successful and unique event.
