Terje Takes Trophy at Cochon 555

Staffan Terje, chef at Perbacco, won top honors last night at the local edition of Cochon 555, working with a heritage breed called the Swabian Hall pig dating to 1821 Germany, which was created by mating the world’s fattest pig with the leanest. As Food Gal reports, other competitors Thomas McNaughton, Dennis Lee, Anthony Strong, and Morgan Maki all had strong showings as well, but Terje went home with the trophy and a trip to Aspen. Also in the good news column: no fistfights.
