2nd World Top Gourmet Awards 2018

One Caring Heart Malaysia:
CSR Excellence Awards 2018
The second World Top Gourmet Awards 2018 is again organised
by the World Gourmet Chapter of the International Business Federation,
following the mega success of its inaugural edition in 2017.
According to Peggy Chong, President
of the Malaysian Chapter of the International Business Federation (IBF) – World
Gourmet which is the organiser of the award, “This year’s participation has
been overwhelming as industry players, including restaurants and hotels have
come forward to showcase their high standards of excellence.”
The World Top Gourmet Awards was
established to stimulate the nation’s economy through a multi-pronged strategy.
By connecting B2B and B2C customers across an integrated platform, the awards
help to fuel the growth of the food and beverage sector. There are innumerable opportunities
for cross-learning, business networking, business matching, industry talks,
exhibitions, workshops, events, educational tours and other activities to
benefit both businesses and customers.
Not just any culinary award,
there is a distinctive difference as other than honouring restaurants for their
superior cuisine, service and dining experiences – unique neighbourhood eateries
or niche business models will also be recognised.
The event is an extension of the International
Business Federation which was founded by Professor Dr Frederick Yap to promote
and develop trade opportunities for the food and beverage, retail, travel and franchise industries in ASEAN
countries.
As part of the stringent award
valuation and validation criteria, judges comprising top food connoisseurs will
determine the results based on food quality, service and dining experience, public
reviews, ambience, menu selection, value and price structure. Outstanding
establishments will be awarded.
To further verify the awards’
authenticity and credibility, world-renowned Celebrity Master Chef Jeffrey Tan
(OAM) from Australia – who is also the Founder of Cooking for Charity has been
appointed the official Ambassador this year. Patron of the awards is Puan Sri
Datin Seri (Dr.) Susan Cheah, Sunway Group EXCO member, who is renowned for her
passion for good food.
Some of 2017’s award winners and
2018’s nominees were also invited to join the Macao Gastronomy Exchange Tour in
July 2018 as part of the award’s collaboration with Travel Guide and Macao
Tourism Board to share and exchange ideas on the food and beverage industry. In
November 2018, there will be another joint event with the Beyond Lifestyle
International Expo (BLIE).
In conjunction with the awards,
there is also an initiative to care for the underprivileged. Through the One
Caring Heart, funds will be raised for the needy while also providing
recognition to outstanding philanthropists for their selfless contribution and
support given to One Caring Heart.
The recognition ceremony for the World
Top Gourmet Awards 2018 and charity initiative has been slated for 29th
November 2018. Look out for the grand awardees and winners to celebrate their
incredible feats.
