Bocuse d'Or is one of the Most Demanding Cooking Competitions, and Every Two Years, 60 Countries select one of their best Chefs to represent their Nation. The 24 Countries that will continue onward to the Finals will cook in front of thousands of Cheering Fans hoping to bring Home the Gold. Team USA is recruited, trained and funded by the Ment'or BKB Foundation, a Leading Nonprofit Organization devoted to Inspiring Culinary Excellence in Young Professionals and preserving the Traditions and Quality of Cuisine in America. This year also marks Ment'or's 10th Anniversary and sadly, the passing of Chef Monsieur Paul Bocuse, the Man responsible for Breathing Life into the Foundation. His Firm Belief that Team USA belonged on the Global Culinary Stage led to the Founding of this Organization.
