The Chefs Guild of Maldives has participated in the World Chefs Congress and Expo held in the United Kingdom from 16th to 19th May.
Held once in every two years, this congress is the largest global culinary event , bringing together notable chefs from all around the world to exchange information, skills and ideas and strengthen bonds between those working in the culinary sector.
In this year’s congress, Michelin star chefs gave keynote addresses, conducted workshops and co-learning sessions, and discussed the evolution of the culinary sector along with the changing world. For instance, talks were held about the sustainability of the industry, food safety, and new gastronomy trends. Also, the final round of the cooking contest, ‘The Global Chef Challenge’ was also carried out as part of this expo.
