Hands-on Learning
Our goal is to equip and expose students to hands on recipes around the world. Our young chefs will learn about different global flavours. We will step by step teach our students how to prepare these meals, appreciate new foods, new flavours and diverse cultures. Students will be empowered to execute sweet and savoury recipes at home so as to help cook meals at home and prepare lunches for school.
Our welcoming environment provides a “real” setting so that the students can take what they learn in class to their own homes. Students will acquire the knowledge, experience, and confidence to build lifelong cooking skills that can ignite creativity and build self-esteem. Students will eat what they prepare, execute recipes learned at home, build confidence, and, most importantly, create memories that will last forever.
