Worldchefs News: December 2019

“We may live without poetry, music and art. We may live without conscience, and live without heart. We may live without friends. We may live without books. But civilized men cannot live without cooks.”  – Owen Meredith, 1860

Just a little reminder for you to share with family and friends around the holiday table this year. In all seriousness, however, we would not be without you, our chefs. Thank you for all that you do as part of our Worldchefs family.

Wishing you all a very happy and healthy festive season,
The Worldchefs team
