Local Chefs Getting Ready To Rumble This Saturday

Local big name Chefs Tyson Cole of Uchi and David Bull of the Driskill Grill will go head-to-head “Iron Chef” style this Saturday during the Healthy Chef Showdown at the Austin Farmers’ Market. Cole, named one of Food & Wine Magazine's Best New Chefs of 2005 and Bull, who tried to kick Bobby Flay's ass on the real Iron chef and lost (but still kicks ass if you ask us), will get all Celebrity Deathmatch, but in a reduced-calorie no-trans-fats way. Because that's how they roll, people.

Each chef will attempt to create the better healthy meal using a top secret ingredient with groceries provided by H-E-B. Foodies-by-proxy sons of for-real celebrity superstar chef Paula Deen, Jamie and Bobby Deen, will emcee the event. How much would you pay for all this celebrity madness? $10? $20? Even $100? Well mm-mm no way, because this Saturday's event is free - that's right - free!

The Healthy Chef Showdown will benefit The Sustainable Food Center and Meals on Wheels and More. The Austin Farmers' Market is a project of the Sustainable Food Center, which will launch the Farmers’ Market Food Stamp Initiative on October 21.
