"Malta's hospitality sector continues to be a beacon of opportunity and excellence, thanks in part to initiatives such as the YYY Malta Competition. The prestigious event brings together the island's most talented hospitality workers, including young chefs, waiters and mixologists, for a two-day competition that celebrates customer service and creativity in their relevant fields, ensuring these valuable skills don't die out. The most recent competition, held in January, attracted Malta's most promising hospitality stars."
"Lucy Paulusma won the Young Waiter award; Alessandro Raneri was crowned the Young Chef winner, and Ivelin Ivanov was named Young Mixologist winner. These young stars won a subsidised trip to London and the opportunity to compete in the global YYY competition. Supporting Maltese talent and ensuring valued skills don't die out. The YYY Malta Competition. is a vital platform supporting young Maltese workers in a highly competitive and evolving industry."
"Just before Christmas, the Deputy Prime Minister Dr Borg, visited hospitality professionals in St. Paul's Bay and St. Julian's, including the AX Odycy. 32,000 professionals worked across Malta's 450 hotels over the Christmas period, welcoming people from across the world to the island over the festive period. The Abela administration's objective of supporting the Maltese hospitality industry, which is still recovering from the pandemic, is an encouraging sign for an industry which so easily could have died out without government support."
The YYY Malta Competition brings together young chefs, waiters and mixologists for a two-day contest celebrating customer service and creativity while preserving valued skills.
