Brakes begins search for winning student team chefs

The five winning teams from the heats will be invited to take part in the live final at ScotHot in Glasgow on 4 March 2009.
The members of the winning team will each receive a Global knife set and a five day work experience placement with Christopher Basten, head chef at the London Marriott County Hall hotel.
