International Chefs Day 2022 and how you can get involved and show your support!
Here at Paramount Personnel, we celebrate International Chefs Day every year. After working closely with many different chefs and restaurants looking to hire the perfect cook, we understand the importance of the role and the responsibilities chefs uphold. And so, we wanted to let you know what the day is all about too.
Every year on 20th October chefs are celebrated worldwide. International Chef’s Day was created by Chef Dr. Bill Gallagher back in 2004. Not only does the day provide an opportunity to honour the profession but for Worldchefs to educate and inspire others. “It is our duty to pass on our knowledge and culinary skills to the next generation of chefs with a sense of pride and commitment to the future.”
World Association of chef societies (Worldchefs) has partnered with Nestlé Professional to educate children around the world about the importance of healthy eating. Lots of fun-filled workshops will be held across the globe for children to attend to achieve this.
This year’s campaign for International Chefs Day is “Growing A Healthy Future.” Worldchefs mission statement for International Chefs Day 2022 is “we will teach children about healthy eating by encouraging them to be creative with food. With the Chef’s input, education and help, children will be able to create recipes out of healthy foods and support Healthy Food for the Future.”
All chefs are invited to get involved by downloading their own toolkits and hosting their own workshops for children in their region. Inspiring, educating, and exposing them to healthier habits. If you are a chef and want to get involved download the tool kit to receive recipe cards, activity workbooks and so much more!
For those that don’t work in the catering industry, you can still show your support for the cause by teaching the young people in your life about food varieties and healthy eating. Have your children help you make their lunch boxes! Or get them making a fruit salad for pudding! There are plenty of fun ways to educate them and get them involved. If you’re needing more inspiration, take a look at the tool kit too.
Alternatively, show your appreciation to chefs in your local area by visiting their restaurants for dinner this evening. Just don’t forget to thank them for all their hard work!
