Last week the World Dessert Champion Laurie Figone hosted a dinner for her friends and family, other World Food Champs and CEO Mike McCloud.
The night was a celebration of friendship and food, as well as a reunion for the some of World Food Champs. On the menu for the night were two of Laurie’s recipes,
PETE’S Grilled Corn Potato Salad and
Crowd Pleasing Slaw, Figone’s husband’s prawn risotto, and a whole roasted pig, donated by
Pete Langley.
After toasts were given and plates were cleared of food, the guests gathered to see a sneak preview of the reality TV show
Pete Stringfellow filmed of Figone and her cousin, Dawn Bettinelli in Las Vegas during the 2014 World Food Championships (WFC). The show features Figone as head chef, with Bettinelli as her sous-chef, and takes viewers behind the scenes of the WFC to see the chaos and humor of cooking competitions.
