WHAT OUR STUDENTS STAY ABOUT US
“What I found most useful about the course was being able to ask the staff at the cook school all those questions I had pondered previously whilst I cooked from a recipe at home. This inspired me to think more creatively and not be confined by what a recipe said. So my inspiration came from a true understanding of method and technique learnt at the cook school, which allowed me to create my own recipes.
To anyone thinking of taking the course I would say go for it! I wish I could say something a little more insightful but enrolling at ENTCS has been one of my best decisions”
