ATLANTA, Georgia - The metro Atlanta area got a chance to see how to
cook a Bahamian meal when Maurice Randal appeared as guest on a top
rated NBC affiliate show. Randal was the featured chef on Atlanta &
Company on 11Alive, where he gave hostess Christine Pullora a taste of
The Bahamas during the cooking segment.
Over 2 million viewers
learned how to make a traditional Bahamian conch salad, Caribbean rice,
pineapple fish fillet and chicken as Randal talked about his road from
C.C. Sweeting student to Atlanta-based celebrity chef.
“It was a
wonderful opportunity to showcase the islands,” said Randal. “It was an
experience of a lifetime and it was very well received. There were
people who were calling me and my publicist during the commercial break
to let us know they were watching. Also my website, chefmaurice.net received quite a bit of hits. It was just great.”

“Atlanta is quite familiar with The Bahamas and what better time to
introduce a taste of The Bahamas to the area than now, when the Ministry
of Tourism is celebrating 50 years and we are in the midst of Bahamas
Culinary Month,” said Chef Randal’s publicist Arthia Nixon. “The segment
not only showcased Chef Randal and his company A Taste of Elegance, but
the hostess was kind enough to highlight The Bahamas during her
interview.”
Chef Randal is a celebrity chef who has booked several
celebrity clients. Specializing in catering private events, he most
recently pleased the palettes of those attending Mrs. Bernadette
Christie’s birthday party in Atlanta.
