Maple Match Up 2015 – Calling all chefs

19 Feb Maple Match Up 2015 – Calling all chefs

Following last year’s successful Tastes of Maple event, the Lake Placid Business Association (LPBA) is asking all local chefs to share their maple-inspired dishes with the public again.

The 2015 event will once again be held at the Conference Center at Lake Placid on Saturday, March 28^th from 4 p.m. – 6 p.m. The event will also feature the Maple Match Up portion during which visitors will taste maple syrup from different producers around the area and vote on which is their favorite.

The LPBA is hoping to grow this event to be even bigger and better and to add live music and a winter farmers market, so…

They really need your participation.

Chefs: all you have to do is:

• Prepare an item for a tasting using real New York State maple.

• Pay a $25 deposit needed to confirm your participation. (This will only be cashed in if you commit and do not show up at the event)

• Confirm your participation by emailing Olivia Zeis and send in your deposit by March 6^th.

What your restaurant will receive:
