The official page of the Calgary chapter of the Canadian Culinary Federation. The familiar name CACC we now use dates back to 1986.

The Calgary Academy of Chefs and Cooks is the local branch of the Canadian Culinary Federation. We are a professional not for profit association promoting the culinary arts. The Association was formed at the first meeting held at the Crossroads Hotel in the fall of 1958, and was incorporated in 1961 as the Academy of Chefs Calgary. In 2004 the name designation CCFCC Calgary Branch was added. Current President: Christopher Sprentz

Chefs gathered at Sysco Foods Calgary for an incredible meeting filled with learning, connection, and celebration!

A special thank you to Sysco for hosting us and for the fascinating tour of their high-tech mega warehouse. The dinner was truly spectacular—compliments to their talented corporate chefs!

Congratulations to our new chef and associate members, and to the young chefs who competed last January at SAIT—it was wonderful to see you receive your well-deserved awards.

We also extend our sincere thanks to our guest speakers for sharing their inspiring stories and knowledge, and to everyone who attended and made the event so memorable.

We look forward to seeing you all again at our next meeting!
