Rittenhouse sweeps every category at the 2014 Taste of Care. Chef Jo Quade from Valparaiso won first place in the appetizer category, Chef Leland Anderson of Michigan City won first place in the entrée category and Chef Justin Frederick of Portage won first place in the dessert category.
Chef Justin Frederick was the only Chef to walk away with two awards at this year’s Taste of Care competition. Justin won first place in the desert category with his Tiramisu desert and second place for presentation. “My desire for cooking and an overwhelming desire to serve the senior’s in our community is what inspired my take on a well- loved and time honored dessert like Tiramisu” said Justin.
This was the fourth year for the event which is sponsored by Prompt Ambulance Service. This year all proceeds from the event were donated to Porter County Triad and Honor Flight Chicago. The event allows Chefs from various Senior Living Communities to showcase a featured item while local celebrity judges vote for “Top Chef.”
