Kitchen Dedication at Midwest Culinary Institute (March 17, 2018)

One of the most anticipated events of the 2018 Midwest Chapitre was the dedication of the Chaîne des Rôtisseurs Kitchen at Cincinnati State’s Midwest Culinary Institute (MCI) where Chaîne representatives, including Bailli Délégué Hal Small, were on hand for this significant occasion.

Kitchen Donation

This dedication is part of a Chaîne initiative to partner with culinary schools around the world to raise the awareness of the Chaîne and its mission.  Along with the ceremonial ribbon cutting, another aspect of this partnership is the presentation of a check to be used for scholarships for MCI’s culinary students to help educate the young chefs of the future.

To date, the Cincinnati Bailliage has raised over $61,000 for these scholarships. A lasting reminder of the Chaîne is also presented in a display of various Chaîne ribbons and memorabilia which will be viewed on a daily basis by the student chefs.

Welcome to the Cincinnati Bailliage of the Confrérie de la Chaîne des Rôtisseurs!

Chaîne Cincinnati includes local businessmen and women, doctors, lawyers, chefs, wine distributors and retailers as well as others in the food and wine fields. Our Bailliage unites professional and amateur gastronomes in a private, not-for-profit society committed to promoting the culinary arts and those of enology and hospitality through example, education and camaraderie.

As an example, we foster the development of the culinary arts among our community's promising chefs by contributing to the Cincinnati Freestore Foodbank’s culinary education program called Cincinnati Cooks. We raise money for this purpose by asking for voluntary donations from our members annually, holding an annual wine auction and having special fundraising events.

Additionally, the Cincinnati Chaîne is home to an active chapter of Société Mondiale du Vin, an organization dedicated to enjoying and learning about the world of fine wine and spirits. Over the last few years our members have toured internationally renowned wine destinations to further their understanding of those areas and their wines.

The Bailliage de Chaîne des Rôtisseurs Cincinnati is affiliated with the Confrérie de la Chaîne des Rôtisseurs, Bailliage des Etats-Unis (United States Chapter), which is associated with the International Headquarters in Paris.

Salut and Vive la Chaîne!
