Holiday Acres Chef Wins People’s Choice Award

Holiday Acres Chef Wins People’s Choice Award in
2009 Taste of Elegance Contest


Chef Tom Jordens of Holiday Acres Resort in Rhinelander recently won the People’s Choice Award in the 2009 Wisconsin Taste of Elegance contest. The Chef’s Pork Athena with Roasted Garlic Sauce was chosen as the favorite pork entrĂ©e by attendees at a reception held at the Kalahari Resort in Wisconsin Dells. Approximately 1,000 participants had the opportunity to sample all eight pork entrees prepared by the eight chef finalists.

“We were very excited and pleased that Chef Tom brought home the People’s Choice Award as that’s what our business is about”, said Kim Zambon, owner of Holiday Acres Resort. “We’re excited about featuring the Pork Athena on our menu so area customers can have the opportunity to taste for themselves. It will make it’s debut on our speciality Valentine menu.”


Chef Tom commented that he enjoys this contest as it challenges him to use his creativity and knowledge. “The plating for the judges is pretty intense but it’s exhilarating to be around other talented chefs and see what they’re doing. The response from the people is really key for me,” said Chef Tom. To read more..

Enjoying the Snowshoe Trails



Rhonda,

We had a GREAT time last weekend - thank you for all you did for us! We want to come back next year - same time, same place. (But I forgot to book the house when I was there - - - - so worried about Adam getting out of there by 11am, I forgot to do it! I'll call.)

Thought you'd like to see some of these pictures. I have a lot of good ones! The one of Bill pulling the kindershuttle is to show you the neat "contraption" to give babies for a walk in the winter.




Laynie fell asleep in it, as all the kids do at one time or another. Just like our burley cart for the bicycle - what great inventions for little ones! There's also one of Adam helping out Paige who struggled that last bit of our hike - how sweet of him! And the picture of Bill & the grandchildren is what it looked like when that movie started - - you came in the house on the tail end of it - with only Bill watching it and comfortably on the couch! :O)




Of course we have to send the "group" picture, and I love the one of Adam & Courtney walking in the distance - the trees, the walk, the snow beauty - it tells a glorious story!

Gotta fly, Linda
