postgraduate program, everyone was really enthusiastic
to be there.”
Sonya Franceschini (Graduate 2003, Culinary Arts –
Italian)
"Never would I have thought that this program would
change my life forever. Till this day I recommend this
program to people who are willing to push themselves
to the limit as a cook. When this program started, it was
a non-stop push, from high-intensity cooking classes to
language building and wine tasting. I always refer to it
as 'cooking boot camp,' which is what I needed as a
young cook. Chef Tomaselli was the perfect person to
break me down and mould me to be prepared for my
journey to come.
The second semester consisted of working four months
in Italy, spending the first three weeks in ALMA Scuola
di Cucina where we learned how to cook classic and
modern Italian food from some of the best chefs in Italy.
It was no joke when we were in the kitchen; the quality
of products was amazing, which is why food was taken
so seriously when we would cook. The passion, love
and emotion from not just the chefs but the people there
were amazing to witness. Our class was also lucky to
visit wineries, farms, markets and amazing restaurants.
As I returned to Canada to finish my last semester, I
had the chance to work at The Chefs’ House, where I
had the pleasure to work under Chef Bennett, Chef Li
and Chef Fernandes. It was at The Chefs’ House where
I was able to create and execute a four-course tasting
menu inspired by my time in Italy. I couldn’t have asked
for a better place to work for my last placement as I
learned many great things that moulded me into the
cook I am today."
