ABOUT THE ORGANIZER
The Académie Culinaire de France created in 1883 by Joseph Favre, author of the universal dictionary of cuisine and pastry, is the oldest association of chefs in the world. The Académie Culinaire de France decided in 1981 to found a Benelux delegation under the presidency of Michel Theurel. The aim is to gather professional members throughout Belux: cooks, pastry chefs, chocolate makers, ice-cream makers, caterers who are competent and respectful of French gastronomy.
The spirit which animates the association is mainly the following: The French culinary art in general, in its lively and harmonious expression inspiring the conviviality of French gastronomy, The strict observance of the rules pre-established by those who practise it, The respect of culinary principles and traditions constitutes in all circumstances the primordial duty of its members, Defending the authenticity and the transformation of fresh products, as well as the local culinary appellations, Working with the same professional conscience whatever the conditions and inspiration of the moment, The members of the Academy maintain between them relations of confraternity, The participation in activities allowing the transmission of the professional culture of the culinary art.
