« It is now Switzerland’s turn to take up the challenge to welcome the 2nd edition of the Bocuse d’Or Europe. With the Swiss academy of the Bocuse d'Or, it will be my task together with GL events, to ensure a flawless organization, worthy of this prestigious event.
It is a privilege and an honour for me to welcome, to Geneva, this European selection event that will take place during the Gourmet trade show, the 7th and 8th of June 2010. The first edition that was held two years ago in Norway established the contest as a major event among international cooking contests
The Bocuse d’Or Europe offers an opportunity for all countries of the European continent to win a place in the grand final of the Bocuse d' Or 2011 to be held as part of the Sirha trade exhibition in Lyon, France. This contest, appreciated as a true European cooking championship, will be a unique occasion for encounters.
The very best talent and creativity will be given free reign in an attempt to accede to the supreme event in our trade. The competition is open. May each and every one of us work for the triumph of gourmet cuisine. I extend my greetings to you all, may you rich the summit. »
