Nestlé Professional organizes little local chefs activity to celebrate international chefs day by upgrading local Ingredients to produce tasty menus for Thai kids

Nestlé Professional celebrated International Chefs Day 2023 with the little local chef activity, hosting a workshop to enhance cooking skills for children to create delicious menus with MAGGI products and gain benefits from a full range of home-grown vegetables under the theme “Growing Great Chefs”.

An expert chef and nutritionist from Nestlé participated in the workshop to share knowledge to Thai kids, teaching them how to cook, select appropriate ingredients according to nutritional principles, and be smart in choosing food that is good for health.

The activity made good use of local ingredients like garden vegetables to create a variety of menus through collaboration with Sri Bang Sai School in Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya province, which is a model school in promoting nutrition for school-aged children in a healthy new normal approach.

Ms. Cruawan Varunpaichit, business executive officer – Food and Nestlé Professional, Nestlé Indochina, stated that “It is another great opportunity for Nestlé Professional to celebrate International Chefs Day with the intention of passing on knowledge in healthy food to Thai kids, in line with the core mission of Nestlé for Healthier Kids (N4HK) initiative to improve health and quality of life for Thai children.

“This year, we want to promote the importance of vegetables and fruits in children’s healthy diet, so we have partnered with Sri Bang Sai School to encourage positive changes in health behaviors in schools, families, and communities.”

The company used locally sourced ingredients, such as garden vegetables, as the main ingredients to teach children about the health benefits of different types of vegetables, as well as using Maggi products to create various delicious menus that children can easily follow with their parents, establishing good relationships in the family and also igniting the inspiration for cooking in the children to become a quality chef in the future.
