"I have always loved to cook, so this opportunity aligns perfectly with my passion and career path. But it’s much more than just about cooking, it’s about learning to handle pressure and thrive in a fast-paced environment.
I’m constantly improving my communication skills with the team and learning the finer points of preparation—like mastering knife skills and understanding the details of handling and preparing different types of food.
Looking ahead, I hope to build on these experiences and skills. Within the next five years, my goal is to become a sous chef in a high-end restaurant, where I can continue to grow and contribute to the culinary world."

"When I first found out I’d be working with Michelin-star chefs, I have to admit, I was a bit nervous. The idea of working alongside such renowned chefs felt daunting.
But once I arrived and started working, I quickly gained the confidence to speak with them, ask questions, and learn from their incredible knowledge and skills.
One moment that stands out for me was seeing Michel Roux Jr. in the kitchen. I’d watched him on TV for years, and I couldn’t believe that I was actually working alongside him!
Getting to learn directly from someone I admire and look up to has been such an amazing experience. It’s definitely been the highlight of my journey so far."
