A new culinary dawn awoke on June 1st and 2nd 2013 when the Tanzania Chefs Association (Northern Circuit) and Veta College promoted the Culinary Industry and Tanzania's rich heritage of flavors during the Food Fair at Elewana Arusha Coffee Lodge. 


The fair had 220 gourmets on Saturday and 330 on Sunday.  Ms Flora Hakika the Principal of Veta College kindly donated her beautiful kitchens and accommodated for the Chefs for during the event.  The Tanzanian Chef's from Sopa, Stiggys, Veta and Elewana skillfully prepared on Friday 80 original canapé’s for Saturday and Sunday.  The origins of the recipes were Tanzanian and were developed by Elewana Chef's Martin Scheffer, Chef Beau, Veta Chef Robinson Mwalkuju with spiritual Inspiration and humor from Stiggy. A canopy style setting of different stalls tantalized the gourmets. The underlying mantra was to open doors for the potential of connecting directly to people.


The Fair additionally offered stall sponsors a great platform to the gourmets. Furthermore, it allowed chefs to showcase their skills, creativity and enhance the quality of the sponsor’s products. Boris did a great job at the fair with flavored Konyagi shooters and flaunted TDL, Pepsi and Monster products with a twist (it was the busiest corner of the fair!). The Sunkist Picnic Pack inclusive of Bio-disposable plates, cutlery and glassware was to the fore. 

As the aromas of sizzling exotic spiced Happy Goat, Lamb, Pork, Chicken Sausages biased with scented oils travelled in the air. Everyone in the fair was licking their lips and wanted more. The repast was finished off with Edelweiss Espresso’s and Zucchini Cake from Cradle & Horn Patisserie.


Great days had by all. Gourmets wait for the next fair. Plans afoot for Tanzania Dar Chef's to organize similar event.
