The World's Premier Culinary College to Launch One-Day-Only Culinary Trivia Challenge to Honor the Occasion
The Culinary Institute of America will soon confer a degree to its
40,000th graduate, and to celebrate the occasion, the world's premier
culinary college is hosting an online culinary trivia challenge on
Wednesday, November 4, 2009.
Hosting the challenge entirely through the social networking site
Twitter, the college is encouraging home cooks, professionals, current
students, alumni, and food enthusiasts to follow us @CIACulinary
to become eligible for the giveaway. Questions posed to the CIA's
Twitter followers will come from a variety of sources—basic culinary
knowledge and technique, pop culture, the CIA's Professional Chef textbook, and the college's 63-year history.
Featured prizes for correct answers come from the CIA's very own
Masters Collection® line of cookware, and will range from basic kitchen
hand tools and chef's knives to pieces of the Masters Collection 7-ply
copper clad pots and pans. In addition, the college will also be giving
away autographed titles from well-known alumni such as Anthony Bourdain
'78 and John Besh '92.
The CIA's list of accomplished alumni reads like a "Who's Who" of the
foodservice and hospitality industry, including Melissa Kelly '88, John
Besh '92, Anne Burrell '96, Jonathan Benno '93, Maneet Chauhan '00, Dan
Coudreaut '95, Johnny Iuzzini '94, Michael J. Schulson '95, and Michael
Symon '90.
