2010 Hall of Fame Inductees
“The Culinary Hall of Fame was unanimously
accepted by the Academy members. Its concept is to honor those men and
women who, because of their outstanding attributes, have won the respect
and love of their professional guild. Therefore, they are so honored by
their peers as a positive reflection to all those in this profession who
seek achievement!” —Hermann G.
