Team frank
Last week members of team frank participated in the annual “Soup or Bowl” cook-off. Contestants brought in a homemade soup or chili and it was up to the entire agency to taste and vote on which dish took the top prize. The competition was fierce and in some cases downright spicy. But the winners were clear. Team frank project manager Mike Drummond took home the first place trophy for his White Chicken Chili. Team frank Associate Account Executive Joe Sallustio took home first place for his Sallustio Sausage Soup. Mike and Joe have shared their winning recipes below.
