Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
I wrote yesterday about the high hopes for the American team at the Bocuse d'Or cooking competition in Lyon. Well, unfortunately the team, led by 28-year-old French Laundry sous-chef Timothy Hollingsworth, did not perform as well as expected, taking 6th place in the two-day competition. The Norwegian team took gold, the Swedes silver, and the French bronze.
The winning chef, 28-year-old Geir Skeie, will take home a golden statuete of Paul Bocuse in his chef's outfit along with 20,000 euros, or about $26,000.
For what it's worth, Hollingsworth menus look pretty darn good. Take a look:
