Reporting live from HOFEX 2009
As we your trusty news team pace the massive competition arena, from gourmet team buffets, to exciting ice carving rounds; through Chinese and Western hot food heats, and The Global Chef Asia Tournament; into patsry, bakery and display work; we are overwhelmed by the continuing creativity and high ambition of the competitors.
Certainly it is true that some young chefs have focused too much on fasion versus function and gotten lost trying to create the latest trend. But others just as able but perhaps slightly more rounded have shown us that indeed the up-and-coming chefs are taking good care to preserve the legacy of excellence handed down from competitions past.
Overall we give very high marks to everyone for participating and certainly HKICC and the Hong Kong Chefs Association are very thankful to all involved. You continue to make this one of the most interesting and well attended culinary competitions in the world.
