The event showcased the talent, dedication and professionalism of catering and hospitality students from Suffolk New College, who took full responsibility for delivering an exceptional dining experience within the renowned Sir Bobby Robson Suite.

Supporting the Next Generation of Hospitality Professionals

As part of the event, aspiring chefs and hospitality trainees studying Level 2 courses planned, prepared and served a three-course meal for an audience that included hospitality professionals, industry partners and representatives from some of the region’s leading hotels and restaurants.
