Reminds us of the value of family meals<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meaningful messages about family and homeland have been sent by future chefs through their dishes. Contestant Phan Van Kiet \u2013 Champion of the Young Chef Group shared: “The reason I participated in The Future Chef Contest is because I am extremely impressed with the theme “Family Meal” this year. I haven’t been home in a long time and I’m very homesick. My main dish today is grilled pork belly in curry sauce and eggplant. This is also the dish that my mother made for me when I was a child. While making the sauce for the dish, I also cried because I missed my family.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thien shared: \u201cI am touched because I feel that all my efforts and efforts have been rewarded. I remember the challenges, the pressures that I went through during the competition. Before that, I was not supported when pursuing a career in the kitchen, but this Champion will be an affirmation to everyone and also a motivation for me to continue pursuing this path.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
