Chinese Culinary Federation Australia

Paul HAMER (Box Hill) (10:08): As members know, I enjoy tucking into a succulent Chinese meal, so I was delighted to be invited by the Chinese Culinary Federation Australia, alongside the member for Glen Waverley, to its recent Chinese culinary showcase and exchange dinner. The Chinese Culinary Federation Australia works closely with industry to promote skills, training and collaboration in the art of Chinese cooking, and the dinner was an opportunity to showcase Melbourne’s Chinese culinary scene to training providers while enjoying some amazing food prepared by master chefs from China.

I want to take this opportunity to congratulate Chinese Culinary Federation Australia president Yutang Zheng, vice-presidents Susan Zheng and Liam Zhou, secretary Ying Hou and all the members of the fantastic CCFA team on their silver medal at this year’s Culinary Olympics. Competitions such as these take a lot of practice and preparation, and it is a testament to the team that they had such huge success. I would also like to thank the CCFA for their dedication and hard work in providing a cultural feast and providing cultural exchange.
