The Bocuse d'Or competition results are in! As we previously announced, the Norwegian team (headed by 28 year-old Geir Skeie) took home the gold, with €20,000 and the pictured trophy. Finishing in second and third place respectively were the Swedish and French teams. Despite a valiant effort, the Americans finished sixth (which, it should be noted, is better than the team has done in the past two competitions).
