culinary arts contest

I've never been to a culinary arts contest.

My son's friend just competed in one this week. He is enrolled in the culinary arts program at the high school. They left last week for a state competition. He called my son and said he won state, including a $5000 scholarship! I asked my son what his friend cooked. He said he did not know but he did have to set the table and wait the table, things like that. I had no idea that culinary arts could land you such a prize!

That I'd like to see.
