JOIN HUNTER CHEFS

Hunter Chefs & Co was launched in the Hunter Valley by the late Len Evans in mid August. Hunter Chefs and Co. was founded by executive chefs who have been in the Hunter Valley for many years and we hope you will consider becoming a member of the group.

Hunter Chefs is a non-profit group established to:

• Foster a greater awareness of the excellent quality of restaurants and food services in the Hunter region and contribute to inbound tourism in the area.
• Develop new talent within the region working with TAFE and through apprentices, conducting master classes and exposing them to different catering operations.
• Build on the education and training for Hunter Chefs 
• Establish a schedule of events and exposure for Hunter chefs to represent the area in the key markets of Newcastle, Sydney & interstate. These opportunities can involve media appearances, event appearances to name a few.
• Generate greater positive exposure of and visitation to Hunter Valley Wine Country by increasing the awareness of the high quality and diversity of its restaurants, cafes, function facilities and local produce.

All income generated by the Hunter Chefs will be used to promote Hunter Valley Wine Country. Hunter Chefs & Co will not be pursuing catering within the Wine Country unless it is a Hunter Chefs generated event for Public Relation purposes to benefit the Hunter region.

The Hunter Chefs Association will hold an Annual General Meeting for all members. This meeting will provide members with a report from the Association on the activities and plans of the Association and determine the formation of the Committee for the upcoming year. Of course as a member you will receive regular correspondence regarding the group and upcoming events.

Hunter Chefs will promote and educate local dining establishments, encouraging their future growth and utilising the well respected name the area has earned for its restaurants and fresh produce. This will be achieved through different ventures that have been set up by a committee that has the areas best interest at heart.
