Chef Austin Simmons and the TRIS team was a part of The 2020 Truffle Masters on Monday, January 27th at the C. Baldwin Hotel in Houston.
The Truffle Masters is an annual competition where top local chefs create signature dishes using truffles provided by DR Delicacy, a Houston-based luxury food importer and distributor. Portion of proceeds from the event will go toward Second Servings, Houston’s only prepared and perishable food rescue organization. Our in-kind donation for a Cureight Chef Tasting experience, was auctioned off, and helped generate $999 for the Second Servings.
In 2018, Chef Austin was crowned the Truffle Master with his Truffle Grilled Cheese sandwich, and in 2017 we took home the People’s Choice Award with his Oyster & Truffle Potage.
Chef Luis Roger from MAD Houston was crowned as the Truffle Master this year! Our friends at La Lucha & Chef Bobby Matos took home the People’s Choice Award. Congratulations to all!
