The Havana Convention Center will host the 7th International Culinary Festival scheduled for October 14-18, to honor the Cuban capital on its 500th birthday.
At a press conference, the President of the Federation of Culinary Associations of the Republic of Cuba (FACRC) Eddy Fernandez, announced the holding of this important meeting, which hopes to gather in Havana several hundred chefs, teachers, bartenders, sommeliers, culinary students and other professionals of the sector to debate and exchange experiences of the present and future cooking perspectives of the world.
This meeting, added Fernandez, will be a good opportunity to confront ideas, as well as to know about the current techniques used in the world in terms of the culinary topic.
"This occasion, he continued, will also serve to show, through master classes and workshops, the best and most innovative Cuban cuisine."
