Press Release Body = Barrie, ON - January 19, 2007 - Barrie is a flurry of
festivities this February, and Oscar's restaurant cooks up a whirlwind of fun as the
exclusive fine and casual dining sponsor for Winterfest and Festival of Ice. On
February 3rd and 4th, 2007, downtown Barrie transforms into a winter wonderland with
family-friendly indoor and outdoor activities like dog sled rides, horse-drawn wagon
rides, lumberjack shows, ice skating, polar bear swim, pancake breakfast, and much
more.



Ever wonder what goes on behind the kitchen doors of a restaurant? Here is the
chance for local youth to learn how to dazzle and impress an audience with culinary
talents. To heat things up and melt away the winter blues during Winterfest, teens
can enter to be a 'Chef-for-a-day' at Oscar's restaurant. Youth aged 13 to18
years-old are eligible to win the opportunity to chop, sauté and cook alongside
Oscar's gourmet chefs Randy Feltis and Racheal Whitman. The lucky winners will be
announced, and two local teens can spend the day out of their toques and in chef
hats at Oscar's restaurant. Date will be announced after the draw.



"Oscar's is thrilled to play a major role as a sponsor to Barrie's Winterfest and
Festival of Ice this year," said Randy Feltis, owner and executive chef. "We want
teens in the community to get motivated, and to introduce them to the world of
culinary arts. There is a lot of hype now in mainstream media, with all the
culinary reality shows, so we thought this would give them a chance to try something
challenging and different. Being a 'Chef-for-a-day' is a unique opportunity to get
a firsthand glimpse behind the kitchen doors to what goes on in the 'back of the
house', and could potentially arm them with the skills of an Iron Chef!".
