Le Club des Chefs des Chefs

Le Club des Chefs des Chefs (C.C.C.), founded by Gilles Bragard in 1977,[1] is an international culinary organisation.

The club's annual meeting in London (2014)

The main purposes of this official gathering are to promote the national kitchen, and act as diplomatic representatives. The chefs are in contact every day with their own heads of state and formed a unique international network. Annually, the president brings together the chefs of heads of state to meet and discuss their work.

History
