Don’t panic, there is no literal fire in our community; however, we are all “on fire” for the Fire in the City competition and our competing Executive Chef Brady Lutz!

If you are not familiar, the Fire in the City competition is a very prestigious chefs’ competition pitting the top chefs from the finest restaurants in The Queen City against one another in head-to-head battles to see who is the last chef standing. The competition’s main focus is utilizing local, North Carolina ingredients, centered around a “mystery ingredient” that is revealed to the competing chefs just hours before the competition! The attendees, along with a select panel of professional judges, blindly taste each course and vote on a variety of factors to determine which course is their favorite, which ultimately determines which chef reigns supreme. The winner of each evening competes again in a bracket of chefs until there is only one winner.

If you want to be a part of the fun, you can purchase a ticket to Chef Brady’s competition night, April 6th, right here.
