Culinary Arts Academy Switzerland launches second annual Cook ‘N’ Battle virtual competition

MONTREUX, SWITZERLAND, June 2, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Culinary Arts Academy Switzerland, rated one of the world’s finest culinary schools, is offering students an opportunity to win a scholarship toward a five-star culinary education, studying on the shores of Switzerland’s Lake Geneva or the world famous Swiss Alps on campuses shared with the world-renowned César Ritz Colleges and surrounded by students from every continent.

The school’s second annual Cook ‘N’ Battle virtual competition will award one aspiring chef with a $22,000 scholarship (CHF 20,000). This global culinary competition is open to anyone 16 years and older with a passion for food and dreams of studying at the prestigious Culinary Arts Academy Switzerland (CAAS).

Starting June 1 through July 1, entrants can submit a short video showcasing their culinary creation to compete against participants from all over the world. The Cook ‘N’ Battle judging panel, which is made up of school instructors and chefs from some of the world’s top hotels and restaurants, will choose the top six entrants to advance to a Virtual Global Final Round. During the final round on July 24, entrants ‘battle’ live in front of a jury of professional chefs and showcase their talent and passion.

While entrants can prepare any dish they choose, judge Anton Mosimann, a celebrated chef who has won over 50 gold medals and served numerous celebrities and world leaders including four generations of the British royal family, offers the following advice: “use the best ingredients, local ingredients, be innovative and keep it simple.”

Global, luxury hotel brand Kempinski Hotels is a sponsor of the second annual CAAS Cook ‘N’ Battle as part of its commitment to fostering the next generation of world-class chefs, food and beverage directors and restaurateurs. Founded in 1897, it is the oldest luxury hotel group in Europe and operates 78 five-star hotels and residences in 34 countries.

In March, the QS World University Rankings ranked CAAS eighth in its 2021 rankings for the study of Hospitality and Leisure Management. CAAS was the only culinary school to make the ranking, reflecting the superb quality of its teaching and facilities.
