The best moment at Capsicum Culinary Studio was cooking my first dish in my new uniform as a Chef. My highlight during my studies was to work with well-known Celebrity Chefs at the Good Food and Wine Show. Also having the privilege to turn ingredients into great dishes. We all have different ambitions in life and where we want to end up in our career. The things that inspire me most are flavour and nature. When you take a bite or sip of something and it takes you down memory lane that is the best inspiration of all. It opens your mind to a whole new world to explore and the ideas start flowing. I’m now the head chef there and it may be a small restaurant but it’s always packed full of people who like our delicious food. In this industry you don’t always get recognition for the hard work you do. Good luck to all those who want to go on the journey of becoming a chef. It taught me to manage my time, which is one of the many key ingredients for a successful chef. Food brings people together and creates an atmosphere like no other. Pastry was my passion and Capsicum is my stepping stone into a whole new world.
