The world is wonderful and vast. We should not waste any time, but embark on journeys to get to know it. Well, have you planned your next trip yet? Why not choose Bangkok, Thailand, as your destination?
Actually, you will have the opportunity to go to this wonderful destination, since the SIHRE exhibition is about to take place and the UniChef 2018 culinary competition will be held within it. The competition is for professional cooks and students from culinary high schools and vocational schools.
Thailand, here we come!
In the culinary competition this year, two groups of participants will be demonstrating what they are capable of. The first one is UniChef – a competition for professional cooks, for whom cooking is a passion, for the professionals who enjoy competition in the kitchen. The grand winner will have the opportunity to visit a culinary course in Bangkok, Thailand!
The other category is UniChef Juniour, where students from culinary high schools and vocational schools will have the opportunity to transfer the skills they acquired in the “classroom” into the professional chef kitchen.
