FARMERS MARKET, COFFEE FEST AT CEFBEX

Now on its 10th year, the Cebu Food and Beverages Expo (Cefbex 2018) is gearing up to host another world-class food show that will turn the spotlight on the unique gastronomic experiences that await in the region.

Aptly titled the “Ultimate Foodventure,” this year’s Cefbex promises to take foodies and food industry players on an unforgettable journey through the rich and vibrant culinary landscape of Cebu. Likewise, the show is expected to open up new opportunities for local businesses to flourish and reach a wider audience.

At Cefbex, one will expect food and beverage trends, delicacies and specialties galore. Homegrown goodness also takes centerstage with the Cebu Farmers Market, which should not be missed. In the market, one will enjoy shopping for fresh and organically grown fruits and vegetables. Meanwhile, beverage aficionados are sure to enjoy the Cefbex Coffee Fest. Organized in partnership with Linear Coffee Roaster and the Cebu Bartenders and Baristas Association, the Coffee Fest is a great opportunity to sample the different specialty coffee and cocktails by local bartenders and baristas.

There is also the highly awaited Cefbex Culinary Cup which is divided into two major categories: Cefbex Culinary Cup: Home Chef Edition and the Interschool Division. Open to all students from the Visayan region, the Interschool Division is a great way for students to showcase and measure up their development in their respective fields. Among the students to participate at the competition are representatives from the Benedicto College, University of San Carlos and the University of the Visayas. The students will then best it out in categories such as Table Set-Up, Fruit Carving, Cake Decorating, Flairtending, Open Latte Art, Pasta Live Cookery, Brewers Cup, Taster Cup and Cebu Mixology.

Cefbex continues to help the industry realize its fullest potential by hosting another round of free Cefbex seminars.
