Once again, 94.9 MIXfm Radio Station will be hosting the Third
Annual Iron Chef Competition on Sunday, Jan. 18. Come and cheer
on the reigning Iron Chef Albert Hall of Acacia, defending his title to
only one challenger. The one contender was chosen at the
preliminary cook-off, “Meet the Chefs!” competition held last
December at the Acacia restaurant. Chef Albert Hall competed
against seven of the “best of the best” Tucson chefs while guests
sampled their wares and sipped on Stella Artois beer, the event
sponsor. So come nibble, snack, and sip while you get to know the
finest chefs in Tucson. There will also be a silent auction with
fabulous donations from local artists, restaurants, and businesses.
