The date of The Daily Iberian’s Taste of the Teche has been moved to Nov. 17.

The event will pit local chefs against each other to see who has the ultimate dish. Winners of the event will have their recipes featured in The Daily Iberian’s annual cookbook.

The public will be able to purchase a general admission ticket, which will allow them to receive five voting tickets and a chance to sample some of the best food in Cajun country. A cash bar and live music will also be part of the fun.

The deadline for entry forms and general admission tickets has also been extended. To sign up online, go to https://www.iberianet.com/taste-of-the-teche/ or send an e-mail to karla.borde@daily-iberian.com.

For the day of the event, all contestants must arrive by 5:30 p.m. Judging and sampling will begin at 6 p.m. Participants must bring their own signage for their table to identify themselves and their dish.

All food must be prepared offsite, and all food must be served preplated in sample sizes.

Contestants are responsible for keeping their dishes warm or cool. They also are responsible for bringing all sampling/serving flatware and platware.

Participants can enter as either a home cook or a business. A home cook won’t be able to display any signage or hand out any brand merchandise, but businesses will be able to take advantage of the marketing opportunity and promote their business.
