This budding gourmet chef even has her own website: https://sydneymccoy.com/
The winner will fly to Orlando to cook with Cora during the Epcot Food and Wine Festival next month. The winner will be chosen based on the public’s voting and the votes of a celebrity judging panel, including Cora and others.
“Loukoumi” is the name of an award-winning series of children’s books. The cookbook features childhood recipes from more than 50 celebrities from Opray Winfrey to Katie Couric. Author Nick Katsoris is a practicing attorney who lives in New York state.
