Every week, our Culinary Institute Lenotre community comes together in one space, around one shared passion: food. 👨🍳🍽️
Our weekly student presentations give the entire school a chance to gather, taste, and celebrate the dishes our students have been creating in class. From the kitchen to the dining room, it’s a chance to showcase new skills, share ideas, and experience the results of hard work and creativity.
At Lenotre, learning happens in the kitchen, but it’s meant to be shared. ❤️
