A week late? Maybe. But legends like these deserve to be celebrated every single day. 🔪✨

For Teacher Appreciation Week, we’re shining a massive spotlight on the chefs who turn our kitchens into classrooms: Chef Lyonnel Eugene, Chef Amanda DaPuzzo, and Chef Jack McGrath. 👨‍🍳👩‍🍳👨‍🍳

Behind every perfectly seared scallops and every flawlessly risen soufflé is a mentor who showed us how it’s done. These three don’t just teach recipes; they teach discipline, passion, and the grit it takes to succeed in this industry.

To our CEC faculty and teachers everywhere—thank you for passing the torch (and the whisk). You are the true masters of the craft! 🥂📖

A little late to the party, but our gratitude for healthcare heroes is timeless. 🕒✨

The Culinary Education Center had the absolute honor of serving up a special brunch to celebrate our incredible nurses recently. While Nurses Appreciation Day may have officially passed, the impact these individuals have on our lives never stops—so neither should the thanks!

To the healers, the listeners, and the late-shift legends: you nourish our community in ways words (and even brunch) can't quite describe. Cheers to you today and every day! 🥂🍳
