“Gastronomy evolves through knowledge, experience, and continuous innovation. When working with students, I find it essential not only to teach techniques but also to shape a professional mindset - one that values product quality, safety, technological discipline, and flavor precision. I am convinced that international knowledge exchange accelerates professional growth and enhances Armenia’s role on the global gastronomic stage,” - Arthur Gevorgyan noted.
In July, the Melonpan company - the Maison Marom Group’s gastronomic branch - and the Green Rock Foundation, the implementing partner of the Apicius Armenia project, signed a memorandum of cooperation, strengthening their strategic partnership in hospitality education.
