Culinary Association of Wales president Colin Gray said: “It was a very close competition with just six points separating the top three places and the overall standard was very good for junior chefs.”
“Judging by the scores from both heats, I think it’s going to be a tight final and we should be in for a very great competition.”
They will now compete in the final cook-off at Coleg Llandrillo, Rhos-on-Sea on February 16, on the eve of the Welsh International Culinary Championships, with an exciting prize at stake.
As well as claiming the title of Junior Chef of Wales and the dragon trophy, the winner will also receive an all-expenses paid trip to represent Wales at the Junior Forum held at the World Association of Chefs’ Societies Congress in Athens, Greece in May 2016.
