The Salon of Culinary Arts & Exhibition
The World’s Largest Freelance Culinary Art Exhibition
Each succeeding year, the Salon exhibits new arrangements and ideas designed to promote the culinary arts. It is a friendly exhibition open to all from professionals and students of the culinary industry to hobbyists who wish to showcase their artistic and creative skills. Each participant's unique craftsmanship is judged by international members of the hospitality industry and rewarded, on the basis of merit, with prizes ranging from certificates to medals, trophies and/or cash awards.
Free Live Demonstrations by Master Chefs and Industry Professionals
Apart from providing the benefits of tremendous exposure, the Salon of Culinary Arts is also a great opportunity to watch and learn from diverse industry experts performing live demonstrations. Many celebrated Master Chefs and Industry Professionals (Roland Mesnier, Dana Hebert, Susan Schultz, etc.) have already performed at the Salon and each year the demonstrations program continues to provide tips and tricks in a wide variety of skills from cake decorating, fruit & vegetable carving, the enhancement of holiday buffet tables to all forms of business enhancement such as improvement of your web image, simplifying social media needs, and much, much more!
