PROUD TO BE BACKING PRESTIGIOUS "CHEF’S OSCARS"
Essential Cuisine is proud to be sponsoring the Restaurant Chef category at this year’s prestigious Craft Guild of Chefs Awards or ‘Chef’s Oscars’.
One of 13 sought after awards, plus a special award for an overall industry high-flyer, the accolade is designed to bring the industry’s best out of the woodwork and into the spotlight.
Winners will be announced at a glittering ceremony at London’s Hilton on Park Lane on Monday, June 1st, an event that has become unmissable in the industry calendar. More than 600 of the country’s culinary professionals gather under one roof to celebrate with their peers.
Now in their 16th year, the Awards cover all aspects of the chef profession, from education to pubs and cost sector to banqueting, and nominees do not have to be a member of the Guild.
Nick Vadis, chairman of the Craft Guild of Chefs, said, with standards getting higher and higher every year, it was becoming incredibly difficult to choose the rightful winners. “Last year’s champions were truly shining examples of masters of their trade, whatever sector they were in, and this year’s contenders have their work cut out to win one of the coveted accolades.
“We would like to thank Essential Cuisine for ensuring the UK’s best restaurant chefs are given the opportunity to be recognised for the sheer amount of passion and enthusiasm they put into their work and the industry as a whole.”
