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.
