Experience

One of the most respected chefs said, “You don’t really know how to cook a dish until you have done it a thousand times.”
There is no substitute for years of experience. Studying cooking principles in books and in schools can get your career off to a running start. You may learn more about basic cooking theories from your chef instructors than you could in several years of working your way up from washing vegetables. But if you want to become an accomplished cook, you need practice, practice, and more practice. Although we offer enough academic knowledge for one to pass their diploma we ensure that we give enough practical experience and practice, as diploma will not make you a chef. Within the school we have a catering & events company, Asidle Chef Khumalo’s Gourmet catering, which has proven to be a huge advantage to our students who get plenty of actual practical practice.
