Long-term-care chefs win AHF culinary competition

Swan Creek Retirement Village chefs Stacy Chesney and Patrick Young took home the gold medal at the Association for Healthcare Foodservice’s Culinary Competition during the AHF’s 2015 National Conference in Salt Lake City.

Chesney and Young were selected to compete in the competition against five teams from across the country, and beat them out with their Pan Smoked Duck Breast with German Potato Spaetzle Salad and Wilted Swiss Chard.

"Chef Patrick and Chef Stacy are the first team from long term care senior dining to place and then win the gold medal in the history of the AHF culinary competition," said John Andrews, corporate director of culinary and nutritional services for Ohio Presbyterian Retirement Services, the parent company of Swan Creek.
