Their challenge this year is to tell their individual stories of a life in food by creating a signature pizza with ingredients and flavour combinations that reflect their own #FoodWithaStory. Pizza fans are invited to dine at Col'Cacchio pizzeria from September-November to experience the delectable line up of signature pizza creations.
The September 'super' chef is Mike Basset, the award-winning owner and chef at Myoga at The Vineyard Hotel and Spa in Newlands. Inspired by his culinary travels, he's created a mouth-watering flavour fusion that takes its cues from the deep south of the US and South America, The Redneck pizza - a seasoned tomato and cream cheese base, southern fried chicken, topped with homemade sweet chilli sauce, coriander, chimichurri and ruby slaw.
Funds raised this year will go to the Children's Hospital Trust to benefit St Josephs for Chronically Ill Children, to fund an inpatient paediatric rehabilitation service to which many patients are referred from the Red Cross War Memorial Children's Hospital.
The 2014 Celebrity Chef Series is sponsored by Rialto Foods, Parmalat, The Food Store, Coca Cola, Place in the Sun Wines, Bos Ice Tea and Appletiser.
