3 Things to Look for In a Chef Instructor

Apart from his personal chef services, Chef Winston also offers private cooking lessons in South Florida for those who are interested. Having catered to many events and Chef Winston having cooked for people personally, one thing we can say with confidence is that eating food is a transformative experience.

Having access to high quality, tasty, and nutritious meals is one of the most important things in life as it will affect all other areas of your life. Many of our regular patrons who eat our food find themselves wanting to try their hand at our recipes themselves. We consider this one of the highest honors and greatest compliments we can receive from our customers. It is for this reason that Chef Winston is happy to offer his services for private cooking lessons. Here are 3 things you should look for in a chef instructor.

1 – They Can Communicate Well

Have you ever watched a sports game and when it came time to interview a player about what they were thinking or what their strategy was, all they can do is state a few basic things? Yet they’re one of the best. Having skills doesn’t mean you can teach other people. There are many talented chefs who would make awful instructors. Finding a chef who can explain things well to you can help fast track your growth.

2 – They are Passionate About Cooking

This one seems like a no-brainer, right? However, as sad as it is to say, there are some chefs who have become jaded to the profession or have fallen out of love with it. They use their skills to make money, but that’s about it. We’re not here to judge, as anyone can have a slump. However, for a teacher you want someone who still gets excited about cooking even basic meals! Their passion will get you excited to learn every day.

3 – They Have Ample Experience

Cooking is a multi-discipline art and skill. While there are a great many people who can cook a dish or two superbly (a wonderful thing about cooking), a chef is someone who has mastery over the basics and can elevate many dishes to a gourmet standard. This mastery is typically achieved in the fires of many different kitchens. A chef instructor should be experienced with different environments, pressures, and skills required. Chef Winston, before starting Catering CC, started cooking in the Virgin Islands, studied at the Florida Culinary Art School, and has been a chef in top establishments such as the Boca Raton Resort and Club, and The Breakers of Palm Beach.
