“It’s just so amazing to receive job offers from chefs while I was doing my part for charity at International Chefs Day at Tropicana City Mall!” exclaimed Nuril Karim, a KDU Hospitality and Management student who is majoring in Events Management. “My classmates and I, under the guidance of our lecturer, Datin Puteri Julie, have set up several booths at the Mall on 21st October. We were putting into practice what we have learned about managing food waste. Instead of discarding leftovers, old fruit and vegetables, we had turned them into vegetarian potato dumplings, mango chutney and chicken stew. The food was very well received by shoppers, who could exchange their shopping receipts for food! Since Tropicana City Mall has many restaurants, I was asked by several whether I would work with them! That was the surprise, although this project was started with the aim of being socially and environmentally responsible.”
