I've always loved food and I want to
share that passion with others
at the School of Hospitality Tourism and
Culinary Arts I found my calling
I'm immersed in something special the
industry-leading chef professors
are more than just teachers they're mentors who really know the industry
from knife skills to kitchen technology I'm
learning what it takes to succeed in a
professional environment. Our education
includes more than cooking
we study menu planning, kitchen management, food safety and purchasing
we source local ingredients in a hands-on program that reaches beyond the classroom
As the only College in Ontario with a Feast ON designation for the ingredients used in
our labs Centennial is serious about
buying close to home
I also like the focus on sustainable seafood Ocean Wise products are an integral part of my
education back in the labs we have
access to the latest equipment and
we train in  techniques that transform raw
ingredients and grow skills in a space
designed for culinary professionals
we're taught to respect food and create
dishes with care it's easy to take pride
in my work
and be inspired when I'm serving
delicious food to happy guests we get
this experience every day working in The
Local Cafe and Restaurant just as
important we learn about teamwork and
trust essential components in the
kitchen my education is picture-perfect
this experience is everything at the end
of the day there's no feeling quite like
seeing it all come together in one
perfect dish this is where I'm supposed
to be
