Sense of Taste Chef School part – time course

 

 

The Sense of Taste next part-time course starts on 11th September 2023 and then going forward for 13 Mondays. (15h30 to 20h00)

 

The Sense of Taste Chef School offers this fantastic part-time course, perfectly suited for food industry employees to further their studies and increase their food knowledge and get a formal qualification. This is an ideal course to improve kitchen and cooking skills as well as getting a formal qualification.

So often in our industry there are many staff working in kitchens but have no formally recognised qualification. This 13 Monday Course (15h30 to 20h00) allows them to achieve this. Coupled with their practical experience at their workplace, they can feel recognised on a professional basis as well by having this Kitchen Assistant Qualification that we offer. This qualification is internationally recognised.

We are currently working with Luke Dale Roberts Group, the Reverie Social Table and Bao Down restaurant.

We won the 2022 Gourmet Guide Award for the Chef School for the most Purpose and Passion in Food Industry in South Africa. https://gourmetguide.co.za/jhp-gourmet-guide/
