El Jefe
Day 2 of Germany vs Mexico Restaurant Wars
It’s Germany vs Mexico in Global Academy’s Resto Wars!
Dubbed “Wirsthaus vs El Jefe”, this restaurant simulation was performed by the Superior Diploma in International Cuisines (SDIC) Batch 8 students and mentored by Chefs Gigi Almeda and Anjo dela Cruz. Here, the signature art of German and Mexican cuisines were executed using diverse cooking techniques which the students were trained for.
Day 2 - Mexico!
Although the Mexican dishes were more familiar relative to German cuisine, it’s the acquisition of ingredients, especially dried chiles, that posed some difficulty. “ To say that it was challenging to come up with an authentic Mexican plated desserts for example, is an understatement.”, Chef Anjo shares.
Impressive and delicious interpretations of this rich and complex food culture, using classic and modern cooking techniques gave the Mexico team the win in this resto war!
“Just like other resto wars victories, this was not a sole effort of one person. I was impressed by the amount of research and preparation done by both teams to execute exquisite plated desserts! I provided them with the basic ideas to spark an inspiration and they did the rest! The training that they got from their basic courses to the advance course in International Cuisine was very evident. The complexity of techniques, flavors, and the maturity of their palate were truly remarkable!”, Chef Anjo ends proudly.
