VTV.vn - A special Gala Dinner was held just last night in the French Embassy in Hanoi, starring 21 francophone chefs of the Village de Chefs in an exceptional culinary demonstration.

This is the highlight of the 3rd edition of Village de Chefs, organized for the first time in Vietnam.

According to Chef Didier Corlou, co-founder and current president of Village de Chefs, the association sets an objective for its members to share their culinary experiences from the land where they live and work. This can include culture, new products, unique ingredients and rare spices that influence their styles of French cuisine and inspire their creativity.

"These culinary skills and passion aren't only transmitted to each member of the association but also to the local younger generation in order to make them developed and alive forever," said Corlou, who has lived in Viet Nam for over 26 years.

About 300 guests attended this gastronomic feast of Village de Chefs in Vietnam. The event did not only cater to food lovers in Hanoi but also opened a chance for Vietnamese students to learn from international culinary experts.
