What happens at Chefs’ Forum events?

We’re often asked this question! We stage forty chef events per year, as well as custom food shows and product launches. Always with chefs live-cooking on our demo stage, guests are treated to real theatre, showcasing the best produce and equipment.  Top chefs showcase their signature dishes and culinary skills to a live audience, made up of their peers, suppliers and college students.
