Top chefs, including Chaîne members, at the instigation of the Bocuse d’Or Academy of Hungary, decided to support doctors and nursing staff on duty in certain hospitals and social care institutions.

The amazing team’s commitment is to cook 120 portions of a two-course lunch each day for the healthcare workers. The project commenced on March 31st. The ingredients and the kitchen facilities are provided by METRO*, our Chaîne member establishment and Bailliage sponsor.

The team organised the transportation as well. The lunch boxes are delivered directly to the recipients.

For instance, recently 120 servings were prepared of Székely cabbage and a hearty portion of apple pie. The team comprised Wolf András (Executive Chef, Symbol Budapest), Lőrinc Both (Sous Chef, Borkonyha),  János Mizsei (Chef, Mák Bistro). So, it was an accomplished team which prepared these delicious dishes.

The food went to SOTE Emergency Patient Care. Another consignment in the past days, for example, has gone to St George's Hospital in Fejér County which received a delivery for doctors, nurses and ambulance staff.

Ákos Bösze, Officier, METRO's Manager is providing the ingredients and kitchen facility. The Chaîne Professional members regularly taking part in the solidarity action are:
- Lázár Kovács, Conseiller Culinaire
- Csaba Ádám, Officier Maître Rôtisseur
- Attila Molnár, Officier Maître Restaurateur
- Sándor Nyíri, Maître Rôtisseur

Heartfelt thanks go to all those involved for the inspiration and initiative to set this worthwhile project in motion.
