Whitsons Assists with Extended Study Program
Chef Rich Sandmann had the opportunity to share his vast knowledge with a high school student, Andrew, from West Haven, CT. For three weeks, Andrew, who will be attending the Culinary Arts Program at Johnson & Wales University in the fall, worked directly with Chef Sandmann at various schools in Connecticut and Massachusetts.
Andrew had the chance to observe firsthand the everyday operations of different school cafeterias and participate in the prepping of menu items and special promotions and serving. Andrew also learned how to create a variety of sushi demonstrations.
The experience was eye-opening not only for Andrew, but also for Chef Sandmann, “I think I got as much out of this as Andrew did, and would not hesitate to do this again. I took notes on how to make the program better from an instructor’s point of view. I would do it again, and as always, it is just one more thing that separates Whitsons from the rest.”
