HEALTH & SAFETY / FOOD SAFETY / SANITATION
Chef Joel takes health & safety, food safety and sanitation very seriously. Students must comply with Covid-19 prevention requirements and are strongly encouraged to ensure they are fully vaccinated and boostered. Chef Joel discusses food safety and carefully monitors sanitation/classroom hygiene constantly to ensure that not only is all food produced in class safe to eat, but also to prevent the spread of infection. We have always taken food safety very seriously and will continue to monitor classes even more closely.
