Caribbean Culinary day for families, with

Young Chef Competition.

Saturday 11th November 2006. 11am - 3pm

The event

The family culinary day starts with professional demonstrations & interactive cooking experiences; followed by the young chef competition for young people who like to cook. - Age range invited to take part can be from 9 - 18 years old.

The day is designed to encourage enthusiasm for cooking among the young, and awaken new ideas for adults. We know that cooking is an essential life skill, but we believe that it should also be celebrated and enjoyed as a hobby, by all.

This event will ensure that Caribbean cooking is thought of as a worthwhile pasttime with possibly a career or part-time job, or business option in the hospitality and catering industry - at some point in the future. In our experience, children and youth enjoy being creative in the kitchen, but are not given enough opportunities to develop and demonstrate their cooking talents.

Structure of the sessions

a) Interactive cooking and demonstration

  • How to create Caribbean Meals and Drinks with little time and effort.

Each person should bring an apron, and head covering.

b) Young Chef competition
