Gastronomy is an important ingredient in the promotion of tourism, and as Chefs, Culinary & Hospitality Professionals we view ourselves as ambassadors working at introducing the wonderful flavors that Haiti has to offer to the world.When you talk about Haitian food in the United States, most people think Griot, Rice & Beans, and our most famous Soupe de Giromond. But there is more to our culinary background then just those items listed. Haiti has been influenced by a number of cultures such as French, Spanish, Lebanese, African, Indian and so forth. We are an island that offers an extraordinary variety in our cooking and we want to share our culture with the world.
