Worldchefs Culinary Ability Awards Committee Created at IKA/Culinary Olympics 2020

Worldchefs Culinary Ability Awards Committee Created at IKA/Culinary Olympics 2020

  • Worldchefs has partnered with the Culinary Ability Awards, an international non-profit organization that raises awareness in society for people with disabilities through professional skills development in the culinary industry.
  • Joining in a collective vision to focus on ability in disability showcasing inclusion, a Worldchefs Culinary Ability Awards Committee has been established.
  • The Culinary Ability Awards will also venture to Worldchefs Congress & Expo 2020 in St. Petersburg, Russia to compete alongside the Global Chefs Challenge final. Individuals with a variety of disabilities will compete against each other to showcase their skills and talent on a global scale.
Paris, 20th of February 2020 – Worldchefs has partnered with the Culinary Ability Awards, an international non-profit organization that raises awareness in society for people with disabilities through professional skills development in the culinary industry, joining in their vision to celebrate difference and create opportunities in the industry in which people with disabilities can thrive.
While hospitality is one of the world’s largest and fastest-growing industries, it is currently experiencing staff shortages, with employment in the industry being a significant challenge for businesses. Many disabled people are excluded from the labor market as they lack industry relevant qualifications. 
To help address this and to advocate for integration beyond inclusion for people with disabilities, a Worldchefs Culinary Ability Awards Committee has been established. The Committee will be led by Chef Brendan O’Neill, with Awards founder Chef Chris Sandford serving as a Special Advisor. The aim is to provide career opportunities for individuals with special needs, and to deliver passionate and valuable team members to professional kitchens struggling to retain staff.
“For us as Worldchefs, it is the biggest honor to establish a Committee under the banner of the Culinary Ability Awards. This gives us the pleasure to include individuals with disabilities and chef talent from all around the world in our noble organization and family. Here at IKA/Culinary Olympics, it was a fantastic opportunity to witness the Culinary Ability Awards in action. The inspiring team showcased their knowledge and dedication for the culinary field. As of today, this Committee, under the leadership of Chris Sandford, will ensure that this part of our community is represented on the global stage. Congratulations to you all, and thank you sincerely for making this possible.” – Thomas A. Gugler, Worldchefs President 
The Culinary Ability Awards will also venture to Worldchefs Congress & Expo 2020 in St. Petersburg, Russia to compete alongside the Global Chefs Challenge final. Individuals with a variety of disabilities will compete against each other to showcase their skills and talent to a global audience. Competitors will have 40 minutes to prepare, cook and plate two main course plates, judged on creativity, workmanship, composition, and presentation.
“It is my distinct pleasure to have the acknowledgment of such a globally respected organisation on supporting our vision of integration and inclusion. An extended thanks to Richard Beck and the German Chef Federation VKD in their support to showcase our Culinary Ability Olympic team. We are thrilled to have such a wonderful opportunity to share the skills these talented individuals bring. To the president Thomas and all Worldchefs members, from the bottom of our hearts a very big thank you for establishing this Committee supporting individuals with disabilities in our industry. For all countries who wish to join in we welcome your interest in uniting our industry.” – Chris Sandford, Culinary Ability Awards Founder
Worldchefs Congress & Expo 2020 will be a primary platform to showcase the Culinary Ability Awards Competition to chef delegates, industry professionals, and celebrated voices in gastronomy from across the five continents. To learn more about Congress 2020, visit at www.worldchefscongress.org.

Feed the Planet: Can a Scientific Commission Save the World, U.S. Cut Back on Eating Meat, Zero-Waste Restaurants
“Nowadays, there are two conceptions about sustainability that are wrong. The one that bothers me most is when people think that this is a trend and not a responsibility or a commitment. I understand that it is a great responsibility to think about the future, about what we are going to leave behind and what we are doing to our own environment. But it’s a problem and if we don’t start working on it and solving it today, there will be no solution tomorrow. We have barely enough time.”

Limited special edition forged chef's knife Premier Plus “GO FOR GOLD”

Germany · 20 January 2020 · Limited special edition
forged chef’s knife Premier
Plus “GO FOR GOLD” 


The
IKA/Culinary Olympics is the oldest, largest and most diverse international
culinary arts competition in the world. Professional teams of chefs passionately
compose the perfect interplay of ingredients, preparation and presentation. For
100 years, new culinary trends have been emerging here in fair competition. The
competition is taking place in Stuttgart for the first time, parallel to the
INTERGASTRA 2020.

 

The motto of
the Olympic Games is “citius, altius, fortius” – Latin for faster, stronger,
further. The Olympic concept of “being there is everything” is also a guiding
principle for the festival as an event. In a quote about the Olympic Games,
Bishop Ethelbert Talbot said:

 

“The important
thing in the Olympic Games is not winning but taking part, for the essential
thing in life is not conquering but fighting well.”

 

On the
occasion of the Culinary Olympics, Friedr. Dick presents a limited special
edition of its forged chef’s knife with a blade length of 21 cm from the
Premier Plus series. The knives are coated with a special ceramic enforced
hybrid coating. The antibacterial non-stick coating prevents cuttings from
sticking and allows easy cleaning. In addition, ceramic particles enable the
best sliding properties with reduced effort and higher wear resistance.

 

Forged from a
single piece of steel, perfectly balanced with a high-quality coating on the
blade and a unique marking – the perfect tool: not just for participating in
the IKA/Culinary Olympics.

 

The limited
special edition can be acquired starting mid February 2020 at the IKA/Culinary
Olympics.

Friedr. Dick
is the only manufacturer worldwide who offers a complete range of knives, sharpening
steels, ancillary items for chefs and butchers as well as grinding machines,
sharpening machines and knife cleaning devices. The long-standing tradition and
experience of manufacturing products for chefs and butchers allow a continuous
development of innovative products. Input from customers, especially end-users
and our own ideas are converted into high-quality products.

Friedr. Dick AJAX Chef's Knife Wins “KitchenInnovation of the Year® 2020” Consumer Award

Paris, France · 17 January 2020 ·  Friedr. Dick AJAX Chef’s Knife Wins “KitchenInnovation of the Year® 2020” Consumer Award

*Original press release available for download below.


An impressive blade and tremendous sharpness for real
daredevils! The “AJAX” chef’s knife from the 1905 series
is honoured with the “KitchenInnovation of the Year® 2020” consumer award as
well as the “Golden Award”.























Friedr. Dick has created an impressive chef’s knife with the
AJAX chef’s knife from the forged 1905 design series that not only makes men’s
hearts beat faster. The AJAX chef’s knife was able to inspire both the panel of
experts and the consumers with an above-average overall performance in the
unique evaluation procedure for the “Kitchen Innovation” award. Quality,
functionality and material quality coupled with an attractive design and
product features that consumers expect – the AJAX was able to impress with
these qualities. The chef’s knife also received a very special and coveted
award: the “Golden Award – Best of the Best“ for the most popular product with
the highest overall rating in the respective category.

 

The AJAX chef’s knife will give you an appetite for
cooking and grilling like no other knife. The impressive 22 cm long blade
glides through meat like a knife through butter and continues even when it
encounters small bones. Whether meat, poultry, fruit or vegetables – the AJAX
is a real all-rounder. The knife’s curved cutting edge make rocking cuts easy,
enabling raw fish and meat but also herbs to be cut effortlessly. The knife can
be hung up and therefore safely stowed away thanks to the practical hole in the
knife blade.

 

This special Ajax knife owes its name to the Greek
hero of the Trojan War. When developing this unique blade, it was modelled on
an over 100 year old cleaver that Friedr. Dick had in its product range for
butchers and meat traders at that time. This traditional shape together with
the modern design and top quality will win you over: the special weight,
superior sharpness and high-quality craftsmanship will impress as soon as you
start working with the knife.

 

The 1905 series combines a historic design with
state-of-the-art production technology and continues to captivate with its
exceptional appearance. As the name suggests, this special knife series dates
back to the year 1905. Friedr. Dick developed a timelessly modern chef’s knife
series with solid collars back then, replacing the traditional riveted handle
that had been previously used up until that point. 

 

The new AJAX chef’s knife will be available from
specialist retailers.



 

Friedr. Dick is the only manufacturer worldwide who
offers a complete range of knives, sharpening steels, ancillary items for chefs
and butchers as well as grinding machines, sharpening machines and knife
cleaning devices. The long-standing tradition and experience of manufacturing
products for chefs and butchers allow a continuous development of innovative
products. Input from customers, especially end-users and our own ideas are
converted into high-quality products.

Paris, France · 7 January 2020 · Feed the Planet 2019 Achievements

Greetings Chefs! 

Over the course of 2019, the Feed the Planet Committee and its partner organizations, Electrolux and AIESEC, have been hard at work addressing issues of global sustainability. I am very proud of the work that we have collectively achieved. There are so many stories of Worldchefs members who have stepped up and consciously made a decision to get involved and make a difference. These efforts are so encouraging!  

So by the numbers, this represents some of the achievements of 2019:

  • We taught over 30,249 children about sustainable eating through the Food Heroes Challenge.
  • We now have 7 Like A Chef teaching centers open in 6 countries where we teach free 2-month culinary modules to help the world’s disenfranchised find employment in the foodservice sector.
  • Over 800 culinary students completed Worldchefs Sustainability Education for Culinary Professionals curriculum.   
  • As members of Worldchefs, you can share in celebrating these results. It is only through the sum of our individual activities that we can make a difference. And remember, every effort, no matter how small or big, to make our world and our profession more sustainable is a step in the right direction.  

As 2020 begins to unfold before us, please reach out to the Feed the Planet committee if you want to get more involved. We welcome all efforts!!
