I enrolled into the Institute of Culinary Arts, or the ICA as it is known, that was situated in Stellenbosch on Spier Wine Farm back then. This course was not for the faint of heart- you had to have Steel Running in your Veins to complete this ‘Culinary Boot Camp’ of French Cooking, Training, Becoming, Being….! One moment I was still Lecturing, the next day I was working on my Master’s Degree Combo of Knife Black-belting & Dishcloth-ing…..and that was how it all started… from the Industry Placements who at first dreaded the very existence of you, A WOMAN, in their kitchens (!), to the day I graduated and started to roll out on the path of all things Decadent and Nice.

Today, 20 years later, I have been so blessed to travel the world for food, keep on investing in the Knowledge of all things “Sweet & Nice, Luxurious or Spiced”….I am also hanging up my hat as Culinary Lecturer for the last six years at a Prestigious Chef’s Campus in Paarl for a brand new Business, Website, Blog & Nutritional Consultancy called “FOODTHOLOGY”.
