There will be two chefs facing off against each other in a heart-pounding race to transform a secret seafood ingredient, combined with the farmers market produce into culinary delights! A panel of local people will be selected to judge the chefs creations, and there will be an Emcee giving you a play by play of what the chefs are doing to create the amazing dishes they will be serving to these judges. So plan to spend an hour or two with us enjoying the sights, sounds, and smells of this event! Your sure to pick up a trick or two to take home and create your own culinary delight for your family, using fresh local seafood and produce bought at the Grand Army Plaza Greenmarket.

In this Iron-Chef inspired program, Cheryl Smith of Cheryl’s Global Soul will be returning to defend her 2012 title against Shanna Pacifico of Pacifico’s Fine Foods.

Judging this spectacular competition will be Blue Moon Fish’s Stephanie Villani, Michael Crocker, author of Sharing the Ocean, and Anthony Fassio of Slow Food NYC.
Chef Emily Peterson of Heritage Radio Network will emcee the event giving the play-by-play of all the action.
