How it works

After an hour at the market, teams return to Blue Ribbon where a short appetizer and beverage reception await them. Then the cooking portion of the competition begins! All meals are served together on a large buffet. A great option for pleasing many palates! Judging takes place behind the scenes and the winning team is announced during dessert.

Our full bar service allots for 3 drinks per guest. If guests consume their entire allowance additional beverages will be provided at $9.00 each. Blue Ribbon will provide our signature non-alcoholic beverages, all glassware, ice, corkscrews, cocktail napkins, and wine buckets.

We want to make sure every guest has an enjoyable meal that is safe for them to consume! We host vegetarian or guests with other dietary concerns daily. Please be sure to share your dietary needs with us when booking your event. With the Classic Iron Chef and other competitive style formats we usually ask all teams to create vegetarian side dishes. If you have enough vegetarians, you might also choose to make one team vegetarian. With other dietary concerns, dependent upon the number of teams, we ask each team to create a designated number of their savory dishes compliant with the dietary needs of your guests. With individual ingredients or unusual one-off ingredients, we’ll coordinate with you during the planning process to either eliminate them from the competition or have them labeled on your buffet.
