As a professional culinary school, the main responsibility of MSA is to deliver the internationally accepted cooking techniques, foundational principles, chemistry, and outcome behind every recipe in a professional kitchen. But at MSA we also believe that today, where culinary boundaries cross so many national borders in matters of food, it is also our duty to find practical ways to educate tomorrow’s chefs about the notion of food diversity and what we can learn from it.
That is why when Filiz Hösükoğlu first came to MSA to tell us about the LIFE Project, my colleagues and I knew immediately that we wanted to be an integral part of it. There was no other way of describing our excitement that day as we learned of the possibility to support this important gastrodiplomacy program.
