ECA Testimonial: Professionalism is What Truly Counts




How do you feel you benefited from membership in the ECA?


The ECA is what has allowed me to accomplish my level of professionalism, as a working chef; and professionalism is what really counts in the cooking field in general. Chef Markus always emphasized the importance of know the basics. He always says: “Know the basics and then build on that!” Chef Markus and Mirjam and the entire ECA team have led the ECA Competitions. Competitions allow us to come together with  many other chefs for instantaneous growth and exchanging ideas!! I have an idea and he has one, at the end of the day you’ve come across 300 new ideas.
The workshops also are very valuable, as they allow the chef to be academically well-versed in know-how; so generations can be grounded in and professionalism. Finally ECA has taught me that every lettuce leaf has value, we must not throw anything in the kitchen. It has taught me to love everything in the kitchen!
