GREENVILLE, S.C. —
Four student chefs from Greenville County schools competed in the annual "Healthy Lunchtime Throwdown" on Sunday for the opportunity to have their dish added to the school lunch menu.
The Euphoria Greenville festival celebrated its 20-year anniversary this year, and almost half of that time has included the competition, which promotes culinary education throughout our local schools.
"I want (students) to have the best experience when it comes to Greenville County schools," said Chef Dayna Lee, owner of Comal864, a local Greenville restaurant.
"I care about the food that our kids are consuming. I care about the way they think about food. I care about the way they think about their community.”
Each year, students partner with seasoned industry professionals, like Lee,
