Marriott Manila’s Chocolatier Chef Christopher
Balane emerges triumphant at the HOFEX 2015.
Winning silver medal for his Chocolate Showpiece entitled “Dark
Disciples” in the largest food and hospitality trade show in Asia-Pacific
region, held last May 6-9, 2015 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition
Centre. He bested 30 participants from
different Asian countries for the top 2 position in the professional category
for chocolate showpiece. His 2 foot tall hand carved masterpiece was inspired
from the iconic movie Star Wars and took 200 hours to complete. Made out of
dark, white and milk chocolate and colored cocoa butter, the showpiece was
brought to Hong Kong in pieces and took another 4 days to complete before
presented to the judges. Aside from representing Marriott Hotel Manila, Chef
Balane also brought home the recognition to the country. Rallying behind him
are the hotel’s executive pastry chef Fil Afable and executive chef Meik
Brammer. “We are truly honored to have
such great talent in our team. Not only
did you make the hotel and your country proud. You have proven that the
Filipinos have a place in the international culinary scene.” said executive
chef Meik Brammer. For inquiries, call (02)9889999 or visit manilamarriott.com.
