Event Description

Celebrate the culinary arts with our budding student chefs! Watch four teams of culinary students go head-to-head as they compete for the title of “Junior Top Chef Champion” with the prize of a $10,000 Culinary Scholarship benefiting the Nantucket High School Culinary Arts Program. The teams will be given a mystery basket of ingredients and will have one hour to prep, plate, and present their dishes to the team of Celebrity Judges, including Nantucket’s Chef Joseph Keller of Company of the Cauldron, Sid Wainer’s Allie Wainer, Eithne Yelle, co-owner of Nantucket Catering Co, and Chef EJ Harvey of the SeaGrille Restaurant.

A shout out to our friends at Chef Works for donating the Chef Coats and Aprons for the Jr. Top Chef Competitors, Sid Wainer, Jurgielewicz Duck, Chef’s Warehouse, and our esteemed judges.

Admission is a $25 suggested donation. Kids under 18 attend for free!

Proceeds support Nourish Nantucket, an island organization addressing local food security.
