Six bursaries up for grabs for aspiring chefs
Six aspiring chefs from South Africa will get the chance to enter the culinary world thanks to study opportunities from cooking school Capsicum.
The Capsicum Culinary Studio’s annual Chef Talent Scout Competition will see six chef hopefuls in with a chance to win, with the overall winner receiving a three-year bursary valued at R200,000 for the school’s Advanced Culinary Arts Programme.
The five other prizes are one-year bursaries for the Professional Chef Programme or the Professional Patisserie Programme, to be awarded to regional finalists to study at one of Capsicum’s six campuses across the country – Boksburg, Cape Town, Durban, Port Elizabeth, Pretoria and Rosebank (Johannesburg).
The 2019 winner of the three-year bursary, Cindy Naidoo, lives in Lenasia South with her husband and two children.
Naidoo started her studies at the beginning of March and is excited to get back to class.
“I had three good weeks on campus then, just when I really started enjoying attending classes, the lockdown began,” she says.
