Saturday 5th June at South Tyneside College, South Shields 10:00 to 16:00
Do you cook a mean Sunday roast? Know how to prepare a mouth watering Jalfrezi or have grandma’s secret recipe for Sticky Toffee Pudding?
If so this could be the competition for you and your chance to put your culinary skills against other like minded 'wannabe chefs'.
The Cook off Challenge 2010 is for anyone who would like to show off their talent in cooking and learn more about the food industry as a career option.

Whatever your preference - cooking, eating, or both - there is a 'foodie' career out there that could give you ultimate job satisfaction. Have you longed to have your own restaurant? Or have a passion for food and would like to make a career out of it.
Simply come along and cook your best dish and you could take home your cake and eat it too!
