This is an amazing feeling to be united for a good cause and this, for the first time all the Chefs of the prestigious hotels in Bangkok, some even coming from Phuket!

It will be a fantastic event. We will be able to help people in need and never so many chefs of the top hotels in Thailand have worked together to create a not just fantastic meal but an experience. |

Chef Erwin Eberharter
Dusit Thani Bangkok |
Thailand has been good to me and I want to give back something to society. In these troubled economic times we need charity more than ever, and the entire proceeds will go to a good cause. It’s the first time a project like this has been held in Thailand, and I’m delighted to be taking part in what I think is a unique and brilliant idea. |

Chef Nicolas Schneller
Four Seasons Hotel Bangkok |
A man cannot live only for himself, and the fortunate should always share.
So when Gourmet One came with the idea of combining a bunch of friends fortunate to work in some of the famous hotels in Thailand for the purpose of giving to the less fortunate, I found this concept close to what is called generosity; and generosity we shall always give, and thats what all the Chefs agreed on.
Besides it is a very fun exercise, with the exception maybe of the Organizers, to have all the Chefs together. |

Chef Lucas Glanville
Grand Hyatt Erawan Bangkok |
An excellent opportunity to give something back to Thailand, a privilege to be able to work in the Kingdom and a great initiative for many people to benefit from a group of professionals united in supporting Princess Srininthorns foundation. |

Chef Philippe Derrien
Grand Millennium Sukhumvit Bangkok |
Joining the charity activity is a very fruitful matter that you can make a better life for someone. I realize that Thailand still has poor people that really need support. This is a great opportunity for me to be able to give some time for a good cause and to share this experience with other colleagues. I particularly enjoy getting to know all chefs better while preparing for this event. I think we are all having a good time, you feel the sense of camaraderie among the entire team which I truly appreciate. |

Chef Norbert Kostner

First of all, I feel very privileged and honoured to be part of the team cooking for H.R.H. Princess Sirinthorn and for all the attending guests.
Secondly, as all revenue generated will be donated to Sai Jai Thai Foundation and to underprivileged schools in the North I am delighted to be part of the cooking team; so that we all can give back something to society.
Thirdly, it is the first time that so many chefs of so many hotels from Bangkok and from Thailand join hands and show great friendship and solidarity to come up with a fabulous dinner and event and I do not want to miss this unique opportunity and I very much want also to be part of the team. |
