Food lovers joined together on Saturday, July 28th to cheer on their favorite chefs at the second annual Simon Super Chefs Live! food extravaganza in The Forum Shops at Caesars. José Aleman, from BOA Steakhouse proved to be a top notch competitor when he shocked fans by producing six dishes in twelve minutes, beating out last year's winner Dave Simmons of Stage Deli.
All five participating chefs were given a mystery ingredient and a time limit to create their original dishes. The chef that produced the most food in the segmented time was pronounced the winner. After beating out the competition, Caesar and Cleopatra presented Aleman with the Simon Super Chefs crystal award, in a presentation that ignited his rowdy fan base. Other participating chefs from The Forum Shops at Caesars included Chef Kiko Ojeda of The Palm Las Vegas, Chef Kiichi Okabe of Sushi Roku and Chef Matt Montoya of Trevi Italian Restaurant. "We are very excited that BOA Steakhouse took this year's prize. Aleman deserves an award for being able to cook that fast!" said Maureen Crampton, director of marketing of The Forum Shops at Caesars. "Simon Super Chefs Live! is such a unique and successful event because local and national celebrity chefs get the chance to connect face-to-face with their fans who share a common interest – their love of food and cooking," she added. In addition to the cook off competition celebrity guest Duff Goldman, of the esteemed Food Network show "Ace of Cakes," also joined in the festivities by signing books, answering audience questions and producing his own slot machine cake. Simon Super Chefs Live! tours 25 Simon malls across the country through mid-August.
