Where Does Your Culinary Program Rank?

Club + Resort Chef's 2023 Top Ranked Culinary Experience submission form is open.

By Isabelle Gustafson, Senior Editor, Club + Resort Chef | November 9, 2022

Club + Resort Chef is opening our 2023 Top Ranked Culinary Experience submission earlier than in years past. We want to give you and your marketing teams more time to compile the required information and assets representing your club—and, for chefs, yourselves as culinarians. It also gives our judges extra time to assess each entry fully and fairly.

If you’ve participated in any Top Ranked programming, you know that entries are judged independently by a panel of your peers. Scoring is based on values assigned to each data point, including member usage, a la carte and banquet menus, certifications, front- and back-of-house photos and more.

C+RC’s Top Ranked Culinary Experience program provides an industry benchmarking tool for you to use as you continue to deliver exceptional member and guest experiences.

Top Ranked clubs gain national recognition for their food and beverage programs in Club + Resort Business and Club + Resort Chef, online and in print, and the opportunity to use the exclusive “Top Ranked” badge in marketing and member materials—a valuable tool to attract and retain both members and staff in an increasingly competitive landscape.

Top Ranked Culinary Experience clubs will also be celebrated at the 2023 Chef to Chef Conference, set for March 5-7 in Miami.

You can access the submission form here. You can access a list of FAQs at clubandresortchef.com/top-ranked-culinary-experience. The deadline for 2023 submissions is January 15, 2023.

We can’t wait to learn more about you and your culinary programs.

Thanks, chefs, and best of luck.
