As we reported yesterday, Team USA has been competing in the two-day culinary Olympics — Bocuse D'or — being held in Lyon, France. Minutes ago it was revealed that Team USA, took home second place (a silver medal). The Americans had previously only placed as high as sixth. Norway earned first place, Sweden third. Food Republic reporter Jason Kessler is in Lyon, likely soaked in Champagne, and will be filing a full report. Until then, here's a tweet from Thomas Keller:
