Since International Chefs Day was inaugurated last year, 20 October has been marked as a special occasion by culinarians to salute the profession and create awareness of chefs who have set remarkable industry standards for the art of cooking. The commemorative day was initiated by the World Association of Cooks Societies (WACS), which counts over eight million chefs from all over the world as members.
“This is our third year of celebrating International Chefs Day as a member of WACS community,” says Made Putra, president of BCP. “We will distribute gifts to the orphans. The gifts have been provided by several interested private companies.” He added, “Our objective is to communicate with the community and support social obligations towards different segments of society”.
The main aim of this special day is for chefs from 72 countries to create massive awareness of the profession by hosting culinary competitions, demonstrations and charity events to raise funds for the international culinary community. Apart from paying tribute to the talents and skills of chefs all over the world, International Chefs Day is more than a special day to celebrate the ingenuity of the profession; it is indeed a day for these industry leaders and food lovers to celebrate the appreciation of food through goodwill.
