Ghanaian chefs win international laurels

Major Courage Quashigah (Rtd), Minister of Health has said about 250 diseases discovered and recorded by American Scientists were food borne diseases. He called for critical thinking in terms of the selection of food items and vegetables that one consumed in order to prevent diseases. Major Quashigah said this when he received members of the Ghana Chefs Association who went to Kenya to participate in an International Culinary Competition in July 2007. The 10 chefs, who were engaged in a five-round cooking competition with their Kenyan counterparts brought home three silver and three bronze medals with a total score of 440, while Kenya took the first position with 480 points. He said, very soon chefs from the association would visit restaurants to educate their colleagues on good cooking practices. Major Quashigah lauded the association for its innovative skills that won members the laurels and asked them to work harder to improve the general diet of the Ghanaian society. Mr. Garry Lane, Manager of the Team and Chef at the Labadi Beach Hotel said people did not live longer due to the food they ate and cautioned Ghanaians to be very particular about their eating habits, especially eating in the night. He commended the Ministry for the support given to the Association since its inception and said that the Association would work harder to win the next competition to be held in South Africa in December. The Association, in appreciation presented a certificate and a uniform to the Minister. Source: GNA
