Photo Album of Clergy Who Cook 2012
The Columbus diocese’s most courageous priests and deacons showcased their culinary talents at Clergy Who Cook, a fundraiser for seminarians held at the Pontifical College Josephinum on January 27th. Nine local clergy – as well as seminarians and priest-faculty of the Josephinum – prepared their finest dishes; more than 300 guests laughed and chatted their way through the evening, enjoying samples of each dish and voting for the top chef.
Now in its second year, Clergy Who Cook tickets were sold-out more than a week before the event. A few new elements were added for 2012, such as the welcome addition of Robin Davis, food editor for The Columbus Dispatch, who served as judge. Ms. Davis presented the award for Most Creative to priest-faculty members Father John Heisler and Father Walter Oxley who teamed up to make Rigatoni Norcina. The Louisiana Shrimp and Corn Bisque made by seminarians Brian Seiler and Dale Meade of Alexandria, LA, was named Most Complex. The People’s Choice Award, determined by guests by way of cash donation, went to Father David Sizemore for his Seafood Ceviche with Mango Relish.
