About FCC2010

The key elements behind Asia’s dynamic food and beverage industry are the people who have committed their time, effort and dedication to ensuring only the highest standards are achieved.

Symbolising the pinnacle of excellence where hundreds of practitioners in the F&B trade worldwide gather to compete with their peers, the FHA Culinary Challenge (FCC) will celebrate with these culinary talents for their superb culinary skills and also their contributions to the F&B sector. During FCC2008, over 600 chefs took part in this internationally acclaimed competition to fight for the top awards.
