First up is Chef Mike Panfil, Director of Culinary at Compass Group USA. Chef Mike says: “Teaching is by far my greatest culinary passion.

Over ten years ago, Donald and Lisa Crutch co-founded Chef Appreciation Week to honour and recognise all those serving in the culinary industry. In 2018, Compass Group USA partnered with the Crutch family to celebrate Chef Appreciation Week in our cafés and restaurants across the US. But in 2019, when Donald Crutch unexpectedly passed away, Compass Group pledged to carry on his legacy with a commitment to make Chef Appreciation a global campaign. Fast forward to the present day, and Chef Appreciation Week is now the largest celebration of chefs and culinarians globally, supported across 30+ Compass countries as well as externally by other food and hospitality businesses. Get involved between the 8th and 14th September and learn more at: https://lnkd.in/e_sXBBiZ #ChefAppreciationWeek #LoveMyChef

Launched in 2013 and hosted by Compass Group globally, #ChefAppreciationWeek is our industry’s opportunity to honour and recognise all those serving in the culinary industry for their dedication and passion. This year Chef Appreciation Week is taking place from the 8th to 14th September 2024. Being a chef at Compass Group goes far beyond serving delicious food. Our chefs use their passion to help fight climate change by reducing food waste and sourcing locally. They support the communities where they live and work by purchasing from diverse and local suppliers. And they invest in their own to create the business leaders of our future. That’s because we’re “Food First, Passion Always”. Let’s take the time to celebrate the incredible passion and achievements of our culinary community. #ChefAppreciationWeek #LoveMyChef
