“This has had a positive impact on our food-service & staff.  Also, truly beneficial to our apprentice cook, that she’s accepting a new position to cook for a larger campus. Looking forward to sending another cook in to your next session 🙂 BIG Mahalo”

“In a busy restaurant a lot of the time you just have time to teach someone how to plate. The food service apprentice program at KCC is a huge benefit by teaching the fundamental skills and core values that are indispensable in the kitchen. Great work from a wonderful program!”
