The ninth instalment of the MIGF began with a Gala Launch on Thursday
1 October and culminates with a spectacular Grand Finale Awards
Dinner on Monday 2 November.
Held under the banner of "Chefs United", from 1 - 31
October, diners can feast at any of the 24 participating fine dining
establishments, and savour delectable tastes from specially created
Festival menus at great prices, immerse themselves in the pleasures
of the pampering and dining packages on offer, participate in cooking
classes hosted by the master chefs themselves, and take advantage of
a host of other offers in conjunction with the MIGF 2009.
To spark increased international interest in this year's MIGF,
special Festival Gourmet Tour packages have been introduced. Guests
will have the opportunity to take tours of Kuala Lumpur, select from
a range of optional spa and golf packages, and learn how to cook
their favourite MIGF cuisine first-hand with the master chefs themselves.
The MIGF Gala Launch on 1 October was a spectacular culinary affair
and was hosted at The Royale Chulan Hotel Kuala Lumpur, the
Festival's Official Venue Sponsor, where the country's best chefs
represented each of the 24 participating fine dining restaurants. At
the end of the month-long feast of flavours, a Grand Finale Awards
Dinner will be hosted on 2 November at the Sheraton Subang Hotel &
Towers.
"With the support of the Ministry of Tourism and related
agencies, I am confident that the country's culinary excellence can
be further amplified throughout the world." said YAM Tunku
Dato'Seri Utama Naquiyuddin ibni Tuanku Ja'afar.
The MIGF is an important annual occasion that has an enormous impact
on the overall food industry and the growth of Malaysia's valued food
tourism sector. The festival aims to help create global awareness of
Malaysia's culinary scene, and be a call-to-action medium in making
Malaysia a first choice international food tourism and MICE destination.
"The concept and execution of the MIGF dovetails seamlessly with
the Ministry's plans to vigorously promote Malaysia as a fabulous
food destination, both domestic and worldwide." Dato' Sri Dr Ng
Yen Yen commented.
