YoungChefs visited Sterling Halibut Farm in Norway

Viking on the hunt?

 Or a Chef on the Viking trail?

 Or just a couple of 'younger chefs' on a Viking cruise?

 No, the YoungChefs were invited to Sterling Halibut Farm.

 We were greeted with great hospitality from Magnus and his team at Sterling Halibut.

 Covering the eyes of the Halibut has that calming effect.

 One of many 'Hotels' for Halibuts. The bottom rack is the SUITE. 

 We have Chef Frode showing us the easiest way to fillet the Halibut, and having the Halibut sashimi-style (with only concentrated apple juice and pinch of salt) straight from the sea, this has to be the BEST experience. Ever.

 We were taken on a cruise as well, coming to such a close proximity with the fjords around us - we were in awe of the breathtaking view, the wonderful nature Norway has to offer.

 Lots of SELFIE... do expect more to come.

It will be an unforgetable experience for many YoungChefs.

a BIG Thank You to Sterling Halibut for such an amazing experience, 

and for your generous sponsorship for WorldChefs YoungChefs.

Congratulations to Chen Kim Leun and Victor Kendlehart

Congratulations to our 2 very lucky Young Chefs:

Chen Kim Leun, from Malaysia, & 

Victor Kendlehart from the U.S.A

for having this first-time-ever opportunity to meet our mentor Dr Bill Gallagher, and his kind donation for an all-expense paid 10-day trip to South Africa for our Young Chefs.  And these 2 promising Young Chefs will learn from some of the top Executive Chefs in South Africa.

We are confident that they will continue to expand the Young Chefs Club in their regions, and continue the honorable work of Dr Bill Gallagher and the Young Chefs Development Team.
