🔥 What an incredible night at Fire & Flare! 🔥

Thank you to everyone who joined the NACE Anchorage Chapter for an evening celebrating culinary talent, creativity, and the future of Alaska’s hospitality industry.

We were so impressed by the students who stepped up to the challenge and showcased their skills, teamwork, and creativity in the kitchen. Thank you to our chefs, mentors, judges, volunteers, and everyone who helped make this experience possible for our competitors.

A huge thank you to our sponsors, Bargreen Ellingson, US Foods, and Everett’s at the Mat-Su Resort, for helping bring Fire & Flare to life, and to Alaska AV for their generous support of the event.

And a very special thank you to NACE Anchorage board member Mickela Olson for the tremendous amount of time, energy, and dedication she put into making Fire & Flare a success. This event truly would not have been possible without her!

We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who came out to support our students and the NACE Anchorage community. We hope you had as much fun as we did!

Here are a few of our favorite moments from Fire & Flare! 🔥👨‍🍳👩‍🍳
