ORLANDO, Fla., July 13, 2017 /PRNewswire/ — A team of students representing Kendall College School of Culinary Arts in Chicago captured the first place title in the 2017 National Baron H. Galand Culinary Knowledge Bowl, which took place at the American Culinary Federation’s (ACF) National Convention & Show in Orlando, Florida on July 11.

The Kendall team included Culinary Arts students Brandy Freberg (Alsip, Illinois), Benton Givens (Carmel, Indiana), Joshua Ludwig (Vernon Hills, Illinois) and Nikhil Bendre (Thane, India). Kendall College assistant professor Wook Kang, CEC, CFBE, MCFE, CHEP, ACE, coached the team, and Nelia Salvi was the team’s assistant coach.

Since 2010, Kendall College teams have won the Knowledge Bowl competition four times. The Knowledge Bowl is a “Jeopardy”-style competition that tests students’ expertise in a range of topics, such as culinary, baking, nutrition, safety, sanitation and sensory perception.

During the national event, the Kendall team won three rounds to advance to the finals where they then defeated Utah Valley University Culinary Arts Institute.

“It was a hard-fought competition that truly tested our Kendall College students’ culinary knowledge,” said Kang. “I am so proud of the way these individuals kept their composure and worked tirelessly to prepare for and ultimately win this prestigious event.”

In addition to this year’s championship, Kendall College won the National Baron H. Galand Culinary Knowledge Bowl Championships at the ACF’s conventions in Orlando in 2015, Dallas in 2011 and Anaheim, California in 2010.
