History
The festival was the idea of Thierry Blouet of Café des Artistes, Heinz Reize of Hotel Krystal and Sivan Muller of Nestle. They launched the first Puerto Vallarta Festival in 1995 (November 18–26). Six five-star hotels, six restaurants and twelve invited chefs participated in that festival. During the last eleven years of the festival, about two hundred featured chefs have participated in the event.
In 2003, the honored guest of the festival was Anton Mosimann, who received an appointment by Queen Elizabeth II as an "Officer of the Order of the British Empire" and is a twice winner of the gold medal at the world level and the proprietor of Club Mossimann in both London and Switzerland. Gerard Dupont, a president of Academie Culinaire de France, comes every year to teach classes and share his secrets with both colleagues and the public. 1
