It is always an exciting time when the first year Hospitality students receive their chef uniforms and full knife kits. The students wait with great anticipation to receive these essential items for the Hospitality classes.

This certainly was not the first cook for the year, but the first one in their full chef uniform. The kitchen was buzzing with excitement as the students admired each other in the uniforms and having their own knife kits to hand, certainly made the students look very professional. The students continue to wear their uniform and take responsibility for their own knife kits, which are kept safely in the kitchens until the end of the two year course, when they are then able to take them home.

The students have been studying a unit on cooking methods, and on this occasion they made Quiche Lorraine. Learning different cooking methods and cooking techniques, they were required to make their own pastry, and weigh and prepare all ingredients required to make the quiche.

The happy faces and display of delicious quiches shows what a great success the cook was.

A highlight was when one of the students played us a song called ‘Quiche Lorraine’ by B52’s. Well worth listening to!
