Comments I Have Received
COUTTS BANK-
“Veronique is a credit to you, she is motivated and hard working and has a great future in our industry
and it has been a pleasure having her training here in the Coutts kitchen.”
Peter Fiori- Head Chef
JUMERIAH CARLTON TOWER HOTEL-
“Veronique has done a great job and fitted in very well with the kitchen brigade, she is a hard worker
and enthusiastic, wish her all the best.”
Andrew- Head Chef
“You were a credit to Westminster Kingsway College and the industry as a whole… You will be a
valuable asset whatever path you decide to take.”
Head Of Pastry in Westminster Kingsway College- Chef Holland
TAJ CORAL REEF RESORT (MALDIVES)-
“Her passion for food, espically Indian cuisine, her enthusiastic approach to learn more, has been an
inspiration to other Interns and Chefs. I normally see a lot of young chefs, who refrain from working on
a tandoor. Out here Veronique took the initiative, never backed out and was quite enthusiastic working
on a red hot burning tandoor. Post her shift, I would always see her taking time out and making notes
in her diary. I rarely see Interns doing this. Her focus has been absolutely spot on and I’m sure she will
do extremely well in her career”
