Whatever the outcome of this show of prowess in the kitchens, it is only good news for those who love their food.
The Malaysia International Gourmet Festival, from Nov 2 to 29, will see 25 chefs from different hotels dishing out a wide range of cuisine, from Chinese and Pan-Asian to Japanese, French, Mediterranean, Thai and Italian.
The festival will be launched at Shangri-la Hotel on Nov 1.
The participating hotels are the Equatorial, Hilton, Renaissance, Mandarin Oriental, Shangri-la, The Westin, Crowne Plaza, Marriott (Putrajaya), Genting Highlands Hotel, Renaissance (Malacca) and Four Seasons Resort (Langkawi).
