Selangor Cheshire Home will be the beneficiary from an exclusive charity dinner on 8 August when Dorsett Grand Subang teams up with World Chefs Without Borders (WCWB) for a high profile gastronomic dinner.
The
hotel’s brigade of chefs will join forces with 11 International World Chef
Extraordinaire for the sumptuous five-course dinner. Adding lustre to the
event would be a whisky-pairing option and a chance to rub shoulders with some
of the WCWB Chefs.
A humanitarian aid initiative by The World
Association of Chefs Societies (WACS), World ChefsWithout Borders (WCWB) collaborates with aid agencies and
organisations around the world in its initiative to save lives, alleviate
suffering and restore dignity and basic human rights, by providing nutritious
food and clean water to the hungry and malnourished in times of national and
international crisis situations. WCWB works with employers to ensure volunteering
chefs have their jobs secured until their return from the field.
Ms
Christina Toh, Area General Manager of Dorsett Hospitality International said, “Dorsett
Hotels have always provided an inspiring platform for its chefs showcase their
culinary skills. Former Dorsett Executive Chef KK Yau was one of
our homegrown talents who transcends borders with his culinary skill and
expertise. We hope this charity event will create stronger self-confidence and skills
among local chefs whilst helping to propel them into the international culinary
scene.”
In
line with the hotel’s corporate social responsibility, six youths from the Selangor
Cheshire Home (SCH) - currently attached to the hotel’s culinary department - will
be assisting in the dinner preparation, to showcase and develop their talents.
Partial proceeds from the event will be used to enhance SCH’s medical
care facilities, for the residents’ better quality of life.
Dorsett
Grand Subang is the first hotel in Malaysia to provide 3-month on-the-job
