Yesterday Lembit and I had the pleasure of meeting Carmel Drumgoole, Senior Development Officer, Cindy Gouveia, President, George Brown College Foundation and Chef Higgens. We were given a tour of the Centre for Hospitality and Culinary Arts and then treated to lunch at The Chefs House, which is run by students and used as a training ground for 2nd-year students as well. All I can say is the facility is amazing and the programming and staff are quite passionate. Check out the restaurant on OpenTable... it's worth booking for lunch or dinner.
