Newbury College hosted the West Berkshire heat of the Rotary Young Chef Competition on Saturday 16 January in the College's excellent teaching kitchens.
A number of local schools in West Berkshire took part in the contest in which entrants, between the ages of 11 to 17, were required to prepare a healthy three course meal for two people costing no more than £15.
Curriculum Manager for Services at Newbury College Rachael Elsey said, We were delighted to host the West Berkshire round of the nationally run Young Chef of the Year Competition. There was a real buzz amongst the young competitors who enjoyed the chance to test their skills in a commercial kitchen.
The winner of the local heat was Newbury College student Martin Fisher who will go on to compete at the Regional Final in February.
