Association for the transmission and evolution of the Cuisine
THE CHARTER OF THE DISCIPLES ESCOFFIER
Asia Pacific Delegation
"The Escoffier Spirit"
…Few reminders ... ...
1- "The Escoffier Spirit" symbolizes Equality among all the disciples without any rank distinction, transmission of knowledge, respect for the Culinary Culture and the constant evolution of the cuisine as well as research and completion of actions for a charitable cause. At the opening of each chapter, the President reminds that, from which it is usually the Induction Ceremony of the new Disciples Escoffier
2- This "Escoffier Spirit" is in total accordance with what Auguste Escoffier had shown throughout his long life. Although he was a real Star, he remained humble, fiercely defending the Chefs, and constantly contributing not only through the Culinary Guide but also his many articles in Culinary Arts. He had always been acutely aware of the Cuisine’s evolution. In 1904, in the Guide’s first edition’s preface, he wrote: "While everything alters and changes, it will be absurd to intend to fix the fate of an Art which is like Fashion, as unstable as it."
3- Throughout Auguste Escoffier's life, he was also conscious of others and misery. Writing of "Manual for the Extinction of pauperism" utterly demonstrates it
4- Next, when a new Disciple Escoffier is inducted, he agrees to uphold the “Escoffier Spirit" for taking this oath: "I swear to spread, serve, and honor the Cuisine, its culture and constant evolution."
