Etihad Airways, the global airline partner of 15 Taste Festivals across the world, is bringing world-class chefs to ‘Taste of Abu Dhabi’ to compete in the final ‘Taste the World’ competition, from 10 to 12 November.
The 10 renowned chefs taking part in the event will compete to reveal who amongst them epitomises Etihad Airways’ food philosophy, which aims to provide remarkable culinary experiences throughout the entire guest journey, on the ground and in the air, using innovative cooking techniques and the creative use of ingredients.
Finalists were selected at local Taste Festivals held during 2016, and include Pascal Aussignac (Club Gascon, London), Andre Gerrits (Amsterdammertje, Amsterdam), Michael Hunter (Antler Restaurant, Toronto), Andrea Provenzani (Il Liberty, Milan), Vitaly Tikhonov (G.Graf, Moscow), Siu Hin Chi (Duddell’s, Hong Kong), Scott Bridger (Bib & Tucker and May Street Larder, Perth), Sylvestre Wahid (Restaurant Sylvestre, Paris), Francesco Apreda (Imàgo, Rome) and Nelly Robertson (nel., Sydney).
Each dish will be judged by an independent panel including an Etihad Airways Inflight Chef, a Taste Festivals representative, and a renowned food influencer. During Taste of Abu Dhabi, visitors to the Etihad Chefs’ Theatre will be able to watch some of the finest global culinary talent create dishes that bring to life the airline’s culinary vision.
The three-year partnership between Etihad Airways and Taste Festivals is a core element of the airline’s sponsorship strategy as it establishes itself as an aspirational lifestyle brand. The airline’s association with Taste Festivals began in March 2016 with events in Dubai, Sydney and Hong Kong, culminating with Taste of Abu Dhabi.
