Goût de France/Good France was launched in 2015 by the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs and French chef Alain Ducasse. The event aims to showcase the excellence of French cuisine that unites all people through food. According to the Embassy of France in Manila, the concept is inspired by French culinary artist Auguste Escoffier’s “Epicurean Dinners,” which serves the same menu on the same day for guests in several cities.
A special private dinner shall also be held at the French Ambassador’s residence on the evening of March 21.
