From the community

I’ve tried different online courses before but what I loved about this one was the interaction with the instructor and having the opportunity to talk through some of my ideas.

It was great discussing ideas and sharing my dishes with others going through the program at the same time. And the dishes have given me new inspiration when it comes to plant-based cooking.

From studying at Le Cordon Bleu, Eyal has gone on the co-found the award-winning London restaurant The Barbary and ANAN, a restaurant concept celebrating the culture of hummus eating in the Middle East.

Tomer Hauptman
Tomer's first kitchen job was as an assistant chocolatier to a Belgian trained chocolatier. He went on to work near the border of Lebanon and his cooking was influenced by a special mix of people from different backgrounds. Now he prefers rustic, hearty, authentic heritage food and has stepped away from the over-plated more towards food with emotion and history.

What we'll be covering
