Created in 1954 in Villeneuve-Loubet, the birthplace of the famous French chef, the Disciples d’Escoffier International association aims to transmit to new generations of cooks and gastronomes the spirit of this chef’s work, and therefore to promote respect for gastronomic culture, the search for improvement in discipline, the transmission of gastronomic and culinary knowledge.
The association now has more than 40,000 followers in more than 38 countries and is the largest gastronomic association in the world.
Morocco joined the International Association in 2020 under the leadership of Agadir-born chef Lahcen Hafid with this desire to anchor Moroccan gastronomy in the pantheon of world gastronomy.
