Once done, the giant omelette was enjoyed
by everyone visiting the "Selgros
International Open Air Cooking Championship" in Bucharest.
Zarnescu Constantin, Director of the
"Selgros
International Open Air Cooking Championship", says:
"The Outdoor Cooking demo Championship is a challenge
either for the specialists (culinary art masters, chefs) or
to the amateurs (the ones attracted to the outdoor cooking).
The concept involves the movement of the
traditional chef from his narrow and conservatory space and
make hin a real star and for the one fond of cooking is a
challenge for his/her imagination, giving the opportunity
in a different way."
