Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa | Tampa Bay Food Fight 2024

Team TAMPA led by Chef Taro brought home the W in the 7th annual Tampa Bay Food Fight. This is our 6th time being there in the ring to photograph this event and always an annual favorite!!! You’ve got all the best chef’s and restaurants in the Tampa Bay area bringing the best skills, amazing, food and it’s all to raise money for Metropolitan Ministries Culinary Arts Program. It’s all for the purpose of providing job training opportunities for adults who are at risk or transitioning out of homelessness towards self-sufficiency.

Seminole Hard Rock Tampa did a phenomenal job as the venue and Haley Hinds, Chris Cato, and Chef Jeff Philbin, hosted and provided for commentating for the skills competition, Geoff Cowan from Alperten Enterprises was the auctioneer extraordinarre , and Stephanie Conners from Baycare was the honorary chairmen. It of course would not be complete without the winner being announced by Tampa’s own Thaddeus Bullard AKA Titus O’Neil. Congratulations again team TAMPA!!!!
