2010 Hot Chef Challenge's Photo Finish

 
By Derrek J. Hull, Blogger-in-Chief

Chef Marcus Samuelsson was named Celebrity Chef Judge for the National Restaurant Association's NRA Show 2010 Hot Chef Challenge contest.

Today's video and photo shoot at Affinia Chicago for the 2010 Hot Chef Challenge was a blast. Floored's very own food and recipes blogger and National Restaurant Association NRA Show 2009 Hot Chef Challenge winner Kristina Vanni flew in from Los Angeles to help with the "making of the 2010 announcement video."

While filming, Affinia Chicago and Marcus Samuelsson's (check out this flickr photo of Marcus at NRA Show 2009 - can't wait to have him back this year, too!) C-House team rolled out the red carpet and treated the National Restaurant Association's NRA Show team and bloggers Chicagonista, Second City Soiree and I Like to Eat to a delicious "meet and eat."

Stay tuned for more 2010 Hot Chef Challenge details coming later this month.
