Vanuatu, 21st November 2016

 

Over four months of planning the Agritourism Event in promoting food to plate with Vanuatu best Organic & Natural products in the Country we are finally here.

Chef Tyrone Mann worked closely with Agritourism Committee Task Force to drive this new calendar event which has been set now as a yearly event.

Through the event the Vanuatu Chef’s cooked 100% Vanuatu Dish for the event & the turnout was amazing people were lining up everywhere & asking many question & tasting the sample foods which were on offer. It was a great event to showcase Vanuatu foods in ways the local people have never seen before & only using local products.

We also used this time to promote Our New Committee Team

Throughout the event we sold food items as a small fundraiser for the Vanuatu Chef’s & Food Handlers Association, in the push for sending Chefs to the Next Worldchef Congress & Expo in 2018 Malaysia. We made close to 500AUD before cost which is a great starting point for our last event for the year.

We will also be working on a project with Origin & communities in training how to use the equipment & show some new styles for cooking clean & healthy foods.
