Norwood Chef to Compete in National Cook-off

From Hill and Knowlton Strategies:

On Tuesday, September 13, Sunrise Senior Living will host their annual Senior Eats Nutritional Challenge where four of the top chefs from Sunrise communities will compete in a culinary cook-off, and only one will be named Sunrise’s Signature Chef. This year, one of the participating chefs is Norwood’s own, Mickey Averill.

Chef Mickey grew up in Norwood, MA and is a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America. Chef Mickey has spent his career working as an Executive Chef in several high end restaurants before becoming the general manager of an operation producing over 5,000 meals per day for Meals on Wheels and senior centers.

His passion for food comes from great grandmother, who showed him how much joy food could bring to his family and friends. Now he shares this joy with residents at Sunrise of Norwood, where he has worked as the Dining Services Coordinator for the past two years.

Chef Mickey is available to discuss why providing healthy and nutritious meals are vital in improving the everyday life of aging Americans and to share his recipe.

Please let me know if you’re interested in speaking with Chef Mickey and learning more about the Nutritional Challenge.
