Worldchefs Without Borders Celebrates International Chefs Day 2014

In collaboration with Food Bank Worldchefs Without Borders has organised some amazing things for International Chefs Day 2014:

Food Bank is a non-profit organisation & is a place where companies or people can come to deposit / donate their unused or unwanted foods which will then be collected and allocated to the Needy via various channels through VWOS, Charities, Soup Kitchens etc…
As price of foods continue to increase, many middle to low income families have problems putting food on the table as salaries aren't increasing as quickly. Moreover, based on our observation, we do know that there are pockets of unused food within the food industry that can most certainly be put to better use.

Singapore Celebrates International Chefs Day 2014

On the 20th of October 2014 our SATS team organized a luncheon for 150 people in conjunction with the National Kidney Foundation, these people are all on the Dialysis machines, we created a menu with the support of our dietician and also the dietician from the Kidney Foundation, the chefs actually did a little show for all including a few song in English and Cantonese and a not so choreographed dance routine, but everyone enjoyed it.

Due to religious beliefs – we set up two distinct buffets and served by different people and even transported in different vehicles.

A game of bingo in which near everyone won a prize and the chefs served and cleared that tables with the help of many volunteers from our offices including our senior management who all wore a chef’s hat in recognition of International Chefs Day.

This is our company’s 4th year as a company of celebrating International Chefs Days and it is something that all the chefs and the office people look forward to too.

Preparing for International Chefs Day with KitchenConnection.Org

Having both – the World Food Day (October 16) and the International Chefs Day (October 20) just around the corner, it could not be a better time for KitchenConnection to have its beta launch of KitchenConnection.org, a global platform that connects foodies around the world with Chefs – both lay and professional, who are willing to share their tips and tricks through live video sessions. What is more, encouraging Chefs to set their knowledge and skills free by sharing them with others, not only on October 20 but at daily bases, Worldchefs was more than glad to backbone the initiative.

The upcoming event, sponsored by Whole Foods Market® Bowery, will take place in New York City on October 21st 2014, when a very special video dedicated to Worldchefs will be recorded. Moreover, inspired by this year’s International Chefs Day theme – Pass It On, Vice President of Maîtres Cuisiniers de France (USA) and distinguished member of the Academie Culinaire de France – Claude Godard, will embody this year’s celebration as he virtually teaches foodies in France how to make delicious hors d’oeuvres on KitchenConnection.

Fortenately, all those who won’t have a chance to attend the event will still be able to have a sneak peak, since the video will soon have its grand premier on the Worldchefs website.

Sharing a common mission to spread knowledge, empower networking at a large scale, and use food as the key element of the gastro diplomacy and its influence to create positive changes, Worldchefs was more than delighted to support the upcoming event, as well as the entire project that stands behind of it – KitchenConnection. Supporting each other in the future should only make the voice louder and create a greater impact towards positive changes worldwide.
