Cate will be competing on season 12 of Master Chef which premiers tonight on Fox, good luck lady! You can follow her at @Wildwoodschef. I asked what her favorite quotes were and she dropped these on us "Don't be afraid to fail." "Every day's a school day."
What an evening at Eats & Elixirs formerly known as The Lab Yakima for the first Hale's Kitchen Bite Club Throw Down with celebrity guest judge, host, and performing artist Rachel Hale from American Idol season 12 and celebrity guest chef Gabriel Lewis from Master Chef Season 8! Competing against Gabriel was local chef Josh Waldon of Yakima and Savannah Lund Executive Chef of Feast at 316 in Camas, Washington.
Local chef and business owner Shawn Niles of Yakima, Washington just earned himself a “golden ticket” and was crowned the Grand Champion of the World Food Championships (WFC) online qualifier –– the Taste of America Challenge (TOA).
