ACC Culinary Competition

Congratulations to Julian Petropoulos, Damon Agius and Luca Scutella on competing at the ACC Culinary Competition on Wednesday 18 May at Parade College Bundoora.

The brief was to design and create a healthy two course meal using seasonal ingredients in 90 minutes. The boys designed and created roast pumpkin and ricotta ravioli served with creamy mushroom sauce, roasted tomatoes, rocket oil and parmesan crisps. Followed by apple crumble pie with olive oil pastry served with freshly squeezed apple granita, Greek yoghurt ice cream and honey drizzled fig.

The competition standard was extremely high and of restaurant quality. The boys showed excellent team work and communication and the judges were very impressed that they had made everything from scratch including their own pasta and pastry.

Congratulations on being awarded bronze ‘Australian Culinary Federation’ medals by the Australian Culinary Federation judges.

It was wonderful to hear the boys already talking tactics for next year on the way home!

We would like to acknowledge our other team members, Oscar Weir and Jack Kassis who were unable to join us today, but have made excellent contributions to team trainings.

A massive thank you to Mrs Mackenzie, Mrs Sabato and Mrs Bond for all their support and assistance with training and preparations.
