CHEFS from some of West Sussex’s top hotels shared their expertise with students at Chichester College.
Historic Sussex Hotels took over the college’s kitchens and restaurants to deliver a special pop-up fine dining experience in 64 Restaurant and Bar at the college campus.
A five-course menu – featuring local ingredients including lobster, pheasant and oysters – was prepared and cooked by students studying hospitality and catering.
They were guided by four chefs.
The students started work in the kitchen at 9am and wrapped up service more than 12 hours later – giving them an intense insight into the industry, something that was embraced by each of them.
Sam Wilde, 16, said: “It was exhilarating. I really enjoyed it and it was a huge learning experience for us”
Lecturer Paul Rennie came up with the concept of hosting pop-up evenings at the college. He has already held two.
