Outside the box? Always. Never any problems... only solutions. If you like Iron Chef...he's your man!

Make an ordinary meal? Not likely....he'll surprise you every time with his creative genius! Our personal favourite...he did a spin on a Calabrese salad for breakfast - He made French toast out of Calabrese bread dipped in cream, topped with warmed grape tomatoes, sprinkled with home-made basil sugar!

Chef Jeff encourages us to PLAY with food...It's all about the flavours, textures, layers, balance.

He has a quirky personality and an amazing work ethic. He makes cooking fun and positive. He's a great motivator, encourages his students to search out their own answers, and to understand how food works; and shows us how to think things through  and have patience. 

Chef Jeff is also involved in doing Rogers TV cooking shows, Slice TV, and radio B101 breakfast tour.
