Congratulatory well wishes from the big family of WorldChefs
On a brilliant sunny day Egypt’s young chefs celebrated
the launch of the Egypt Young Chefs Club. This is the realization of a dream of
the nine member committee involved in its conception and development. Andy
Cuthbert, Chairman of the Young Chefs Global Development Team for Worldchefs,
had flown in from Dubai to attend the inspirational day and add his celebrity
presence to the occasion. The day’s festivities were a
marvellous celebration of Egypt’s young talent.
The Egypt Young Chefs Club (EYCC) is the youth arm of
the Egyptian Chefs Association. The new organization nurtures youthful talent
in the food and beverage field and is reputed for its distinctive mission,
excellent culinary standards and dedication to promoting continuous improvement
in the profession. The launch event brought
many young Egyptian chefs together and provided a platform for the culinary
professionals to interact, have fun and interact with the rising stars of their
profession.
Committee members and their colleagues of the Egypt
Young Chefs Club volunteered in preparing a delicious selection of canapés to
welcome the guests. After the official inauguration speeches the guests enjoyed
watching a slicing and dicing competition and then joined the chefs to watch Nubian
musicians give a traditional song and dance display in the gardens. After all
this excitement it was time for yet more food. The BBQ stations opened and
offered a varied selection of Egyptian fair accompanied with interesting
condiments. The festivities were concluded by the official cutting of the
celebration cake prepared by the Cairo Marriott Hotel.
The launch party was a celebration of the committee's aspiration
to build a community where young professionals will enjoy an open society in
which information exchange and networking are the hallmarks of its mission.To all the Young Chefs in Egypt we say Congratulations! The future is yours!
