What inspired your creation?”The combination of my home canton of Valais and the canton where I’m training, Bern, really inspired me. I also drew on my childhood memories—from experiences with my grandparents to my favorite fruit.”
How was the preparation for the competition?"The preparation was definitely exhausting, but very exciting. I was able to improve a lot in many areas. This progress will certainly help me in future competitions."
Why did you decide to stop by the Gastroimpuls showroom to select your products?"To hold the products in my hands and get a better idea of them."
What did you particularly like about the selection process or the consultation?The wide range of products and Mario’s professional advice were a huge help to me.
What advice would you give to other students who want to participate in the next HUG Contest? “Just get started, have fun, and give it your best. It also helps to always think outside the box a little.”
