An illustrious band of thirteen internationally renowned chefs will converge on Hanoi during the first week of October for a culinary extravaganza at the Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi. Culinary Stars 2018 will bring together a new league of nine amazing chefs and culinary maestros representing 8 Michelin stars. Together with four AccorHotels chefs, they will take diners on a gastronomic journey rarely experienced in Vietnam. The event will run from Oct. 1 to 7, 2018 at Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi.
Gourmands are in for an epicurean jackpot at the first Culinary Stars event which will feature five dinners and five culinary events. Specially curated culinary activities include the launch of new food products in L’epicerie, a cooking class, a chocolate buffet with a fashion show, a wine and cheese showcase and a special Sunday brunch. “The gathering of thirteen of the finest chefs from three continents in one of the most historical venues in Hanoi, in a city with a one of the great culinary traditions, should turn into something akin to the perfect storm.” said William Haandrikman, General Manager of Metropole Hanoi.
