Guest David Shackleton, Bailli Delegue for Chaîne des Rôtisseurs New Zealand, was highly impressed by the students menu and service:

“Our year-end function at Le Cordon Bleu New Zealand is always one of the highlights of our calendar and this year was no different. The evening was superb and the school lived up to its reputation for producing outstanding dishes, served in a very professional manner. Every course was a work of art and the depth of flavours remarkable. The students really outdid themselves both on the culinary and service side and were a real credit to Le Cordon Bleu.” - David Shackleton
