The Culinary Institute of Norway (CIN) is a national centre of expertise for participants in the food and beverage value chain. We work within the fields of training, promotion and meals development, both for professionals in the food and drinks industry and for anyone who is interested in food and food culture.
The Culinary Institute of Norway brings good food into focus, spreads enthusiasm for food and works to increase the understanding of food and beverage as important aspects of culture.
Since 1990, this professional environment has systematically recruited the very best chefs in Norway. We have instilled self-respect amongst the people in the food industry and promoted some of the best food and wine ambassadors.
CIN shall inspire quality and efficiency in everyone who prepares meals. This applies to techniques, raw materials and preparation.
CIN shall influence producers of food and beverages to combine raw materials in such a way that the final product is full of taste, smell, colour and texture. Furthermore, we shall ensure that the consumers receive a product with the appropriate packaging and instructions.
In short, the Culinary Institute of Norway is to be a link and a resource between consumers and producers in the value chain.
