Filed under: Etc., Marketing/Advertising, Lexus, Celebrities

Lexus is serious about food. The automaker sponsors Bravo's popular Top Chef Masters television series, and now it's decided to form a culinary dream team of its own. The luxury marque has announced the creation of the Lexus Culinary Masters, and its roster is filled with world-renowned restaurateurs and a couple of Iron Chef mainstays.

Making their debut team appearance at the Pebble Beach Food & Wine Festival will be the following celebrity chefs:

• Michael Symon
• Masaharu Morimoto
• Daniel Boulud
• Michael Ciarello
• Dean Fearing
• Christopher Kostow

The festival begins on April 28 and runs through May 1. As you might have guessed, Lexus is the main sponsor of the Pebble Beach Food & Wine Festival, and its Culinary Masters team will hold a series of tasting events over the course of the event. Of course, Lexus won't just gather up these sharp knives for just one event - it vows to include them in "multiple initiatives, including Lexus customer appreciation programs, charitable outreach, and multimedia productions."
