Baron H. Galand Culinary Knowledge Bowl

About the Competition

First held at the 1992 ACF National Convention in Washington, D.C., the Baron H. Galand Culinary Knowledge Bowl is the brainchild of Carol Kelly, a member of the Nation’s Capital Chefs’ Association and a culinary instructor. She used the competition format as a way of testing her vocational high school students.

As the competition grew, it was named after former ACF President and long time advocate of apprentices and junior members Baron H. Galand, CEC.

Today the competition includes sensory questions, hidden pictures, and of course challenging culinary, baking, nutrition, sanitation and math questions.

Qualifying

Knowledge Bowl teams compete at their respective ACF Regional Conference. The winning team from each region earns the right to contend for the national title during ACF’s National Convention.
