These 60 finalists will be notified and they will then bring their dish to the Martin Theatre on Nov. 6 for judging. If you are a finalist, we will contact you. We will give you instructions about preparing the dish. Please, unless you have received notification, do not bring your dish the evening of the event. The Martin Theatre does not provide heating facilities.
Coordinators urge contestants to bring temperature-appropriate dishes.
We do not have any way to reheat dishes. Once all the money is dolled out, it's time to eat. The doors will be open for the tasting feast. Participants are allowed to bring one guest. The top four recipes in each category will be published in The News Herald's Nov. 13 Food section.
