Abstract
London trainee chef David Powell, from Westminster Kingsway College (WKC), has been crowned the Spanish Young Chef of the Year after beating stiff competition from eight other finalists in the cook off last weekend (15 November).
The well deserved winner has won a three day work placement at the renowned restaurant, El Bulli in Spain. Students had to design a three-course meal for four covers using Spanish fruits in each course and supply the details of ingredients, method and a colour photograph of each dish. They had to use at least one fruit from one of the following pairs of ingredients: Strawberries and raspberries; Picota cherries and plums; and persimmon and cherimoya. The competition, run by Foods from Spain, was judged by Peter Gordon (co-owner of London's The Providores and Tapa Room); María José Sevilla (food writer and director of Foods from Spain); and chef lecturer José Souto.
