Under the patronage of French President Emmanuel Macron, and honorably represented by Guillaume Gomez<\/span>, French Ambassador for Gastronomy and Food, MOF and former chef at the \u00c9lys\u00e9e Palace, Trophy Table Art<\/strong> took place in Polynesia for the very first time.<\/span><\/p>\n

Trophy Table Art<\/strong>, launched by B\u00e9atrice Fabignon<\/span>, a chef specializing in Creole and overseas specialties, is the first traveling competition to showcase excellence in overseas tableware, service and gastronomy. The “concours d’excellence” makes a stopover in each of the French overseas territories, and French Polynesia is the fifth. The grand finale will bring the competition to a close in Paris.<\/span><\/p>\n

Supported by the Polynesian Government via the Ministry of Education and the Vice-Rectorate, this event aims to mobilize young people enrolled in the field, and create links between its apprentices and professionals in the trade. At the same time, it highlights the launch of the Polynesian culinary signature, the flagship project of the Pacific Hotel and Catering Trades and Qualifications Campus, headed by Hina Gr\u00e9pin<\/span>.<\/span><\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Orchestrated by<\/span> Emmanuel Fournis<\/span>, ma\u00eetre d’h\u00f4tel, sommelier, consultant and restaurant teacher, the first rounds of the cooking competition took place on February 2 at the Lyc\u00e9e h\u00f4telier de Tahiti. In the morning, the young trainees were pitted against the professionals in the afternoon. The next day saw the tableware competition for the same categories. During their visit to Fenua, the delegation also offered a number of master classes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Under the watchful eye of Guillaume Gomez<\/span>, the French President’s personal representative in matters of gastronomy, several personalities made up the competition jury. Among them were Davy Tissot<\/span>, Meilleur ouvrier de France cuisine and Bocuse d’Or de France in 2021, St\u00e9phane Guenaud<\/span>, ma\u00eetre d’h\u00f4tel and silversmith at the \u00c9lys\u00e9e Palace, Malia Metella<\/span>, vice Olympic swimming champion, and of course, the heart of the competition, B\u00e9atrice Fabignon<\/span>.<\/p>\n

The competition, which took a closer look at Polynesian cuisine, naturally included a number of experts in Fenua gastronomy. Chef Heiarii Hoiore<\/span>, from Hei Restaurant<\/em>, and Chef Tereva Galopi<\/span>n, from Le Sully<\/em>, both joined the jury of excellence for the occasion.<\/p>\n

Chef Teao Maiarii<\/span> of Maru Maru<\/em> also concocted the surprise baskets for the competition.<\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
