Museum of Applied Art Cologne, An der Rechtschule 1, 50667 Köln

If master-, hobby- or celebrity chef, in German television they chop more than ever. Even in the feuilletons one will find an ongoing discussion on ,Friying Terror’.  However, this year’s Cologne Conference Lectures illustrate, that this genre still exists – particularly due to the fact, that it has the ability to invent itself continuously new. At the Museum of Applied Art celebrity chefs will debate on new potentials for innovative cookery shows. National and international experts explore the current market development and marketing opportunities. Following the lecture, a petite Luncheon is offered.
