2010 World Pastry Team Championship - July 5-6
JW Marriott Desert Ridge Resort and Spa, Phoenix, AZ

Team Chowhdhury, consisting of captain Kaushik Chowdhury (Executive Pastry Chef of the JW Marriott Desert Ridge Resort and Spa), Melynda Gilmore (Pastry Supervisor for JW Marriott Desert Ridge), and Keith Taylor (Assistant Pastry Chef at the JW Marriott Desert Ridge) are set to represent the US in the Amoretti 2010 World Pastry Team Championship on the strength of the Gold medal performance at the Amoretti 2009 National Pastry Team Championship.

Team Chowhdhury hails from the JW Marriott Desert Ridge - does that make it the JW Marriott Dessert Ridge during the competition - offering them the home field advantage as there is no need to travel to train and they are intimiately familiar with what it means to work within the facility where the competition is being held.
