A 5 member team from Mount Lavinia Hotel led by
Chef Dr. Publis Silva represented Sri Lanka at the Asian Culinary Culture
Festival held in Incheon, South Korea which coincided with the 2014 Asian
Games. Spanning over 16 days, the festival saw Master Chefs from 10 Asian Countries
including Korea, China, Japan, Thailand, India, Indonesia and Vietnam producing
the best cuisines unique to their countries to captivate the taste buds of the
thousands who gathered for the Asian Games.
“We are proud to have been the chosen delegates to
take authentic Sri Lankan cuisine to the rest of Asia. The Asian Games was an
enormous platform which brought together the whole of Asia. The popularity of
Asian food, be it Chinese, Thai, Japanese, Indian or Sri Lankan is rising
around the world and the Asian Culinary Culture Festival was a celebration of
this achievement”, stated Bazeer Cassim, Group General Manager of Mount Lavinia
Hotel. He further added, “We are once again honoured to have the culinary guru
of authentic Sri Lankan cuisine - Dr. Publis Silva to
lead the team as he received much recognition and applaud”.
The Asian Culinary Culture Festival was introduced
with the aim of adding flavour to sports events and was held in the vicinity of
the stadium where the main Asian Games were held. The profits from this
festival will be utilised to help children in under-developed Asian Countries.
