5 Day Food Styling Class at CCA Podium

I think food, to be recognized as delicious and to die for needs to have 3 characteristics a. Taste b. Nutrients c. Style.  Meeting these three requirements will surely ignite your senses - taste, touch and sight making the food you personally prepared, a sure hit.  Our country perhaps is best known for its abundant recipe of foods with delectable taste, superb nutrients and creative styling and preparation. Among the three, the way food is served and presented in a way was the least of anyone's priority. The thought process involved in presenting a dish is no joke as this sets the first impression one has on a certain dish.

Food styling is not just the act of putting together a dish rather an art that requires skill and knowledge. It is through this that a simple dish becomes a work of art.

Food styling has now become very popular in the Philippines. CCA Podium recognizes this in developing a short course on food styling and food photography.

Atten-huuuut! Young Chefs’ Bootcamp at CCA Podium

I love kids. In college, I thought and took a course that will make me work with or for kids. Although, to be honest and now that I am working, I seemed to deviate from that vision. I still love to do stuff for and with kids.

This summer, sharing the same passion I have for kids, the Center for Culinary Arts - Podium - again poets take note, the only market cafe, culinary school and events place in the country today, has successfully organized the Young Chef Boot Camp (YCBC).

CCA Podium's YCBC aims to teach kids and develop their culinary skills with the right method, approach and discipline.
