As a way to evaluate our skills and knowledge acquired during our french culinary specialisation program in Paris at the Institut Universitaire de Formation des Maîtres (IUFM), the University, the Mexican Residence for Students Maison du Mexique and the 18 mexicans accorded to prepare a fancy dinner with mexican ingredients and french techniques.
We were in charge of everything and we worked in multiple task such as decorators, cooks, pastry cook, waiters, bartenders, audio and video techincals, host, dishwashers, stewards, security agents, etc.



We were very nervous as well and excited about this challenge, considering we would have -once again- the Mexican Ambassador to France as our VIP guest.
I acted as the Pastry Chef, and had the luck to work with my closest friends in the partie. I also created this slideshow projected right before starting the service to all the 120 assistants.
Its purpose was to show the french how really Mexico is, outside the stereotypes and cliches, and of course, to show the world some of my shots :)



More coming soon.
