This morning, a few of our Dames joined students for Future Culibarians Day, an inspiring morning designed to introduce the next generation to careers in the culinary world. Students heard from Chef Roscoe Hall about his story & journey in the industry, enjoyed a chef demonstration & got the chance to learn from leaders who are helping shape the future of food.

A special thank you to Dame Dulce Victoria Rivera for joining a panel coordinated by Dame Rebecca Lemelin Gann & to Dame Chanda Temple for being there to support this incredible program.

We’re proud to be part of creating opportunities, sharing stories & inspiring the next generation of culinary leaders.
