The assistant chefs were selected and received a government grant to study their chosen career.

They partook in a three months skills program where they were trained in preparing food. They were practically trained and they worked in the main kitchen of Avalon Springs Hotel.

They attended the course at Dream Hotel School under the training Executive Chef Evert Fourie who specialised in training chefs.

The aspects which they studied were:

Describe layout  services  and facilities of the organisation Maintain a secure working environment Maintain a safe working environment Maintain a health , hygiene and professional appearance Maintain hygiene in food  preparations, cooking  and storage Maintain effective working relationship with other members of staff Handle and store food Handle and maintain knives Prepare and cook  basic meat , poultry, game and offal dishes Prepare and cook basic fish dishes Prepare basic sauces and soups Prepare and cook basic fruit dishes Prepare and cook basic rice dishes Prepare and cook basic vegetable protein dishes Prepare and present  food for cold presentation Provide carvery/buffet service Prepare and cook basic cold  and hot deserts Prepare and cook basic dough  products Prepare and cook pastry dishes Prepare and decorate basic cakes and biscuits

 

The approach of the presentation of the course was approximately 30 % theory and 70 % practical.

The expectation of the potential employer should be that the Assistant Chef is an Assistant to a Chef. They are at the beginning of a career but they have a passion to work with food and develop in the industry.
