Game for a challenge
"Hospitality lecturer Wullie Balfour (centre) with local chefs"
Young chefs from two St Andrews restaurants were taken on a game-based learning journey at 抖阴直播 Elmwood.
The chefs from St Andrews Links and Playfair鈥檚 Restaurant and Steakhouse 鈥� which both help to raise funds for student bursaries every year 鈥� attended sessions with lecturer Jim Goodlad and lecturers Wullie Balfour and Mark Barker.
They were also joined by Hazel McFadzean of Hazelnuts Catering, who cooks for shooting groups, for the day which began on a local estate and ended in the training kitchen.
The chefs were given an introduction to pheasant rearing, from the incubated egg to game bird preparation.
They then headed to the kitchen for a game bird cookery demonstration before getting to work on their individual creations.
The day was organised by Savour St Andrews, which works with local businesses to promote food and drink in the town around St Andrew鈥檚 Day, as well as supporting future generations of chefs.
Co-ordinator Viv Collie said that the events held in the run-up to St Andrew鈥檚 Day wouldn鈥檛 be possible without the participation of local businesses.
鈥淭his is a way of giving something back, and letting the chefs see from start to finish how some ingredients end up in their kitchens,鈥� she said.
