65 Tartlets for birthday treats

65 tartlets as birthday treats for my partner’s colleagues

Pop-up restaurant ‘Lokaal’ branding and decor

As part of earning our commis chef degree our class took on a ‘circle of life’ project, where we adopted a newborn bull calf from a dairy farm at the start of the year and at the end had to prepare a five course meal from it for >80 people. For this project I created all the branding, our special ‘tear-off’ menus and several large decor pieces. I also was the chef in charge of a tasting dish from our calf’s organ meats which is described in another post.

Pop-up restaurant ‘Lokaal’ dish: ‘Fifth Quarter’ Tasting

As part of earning our commis chef degree our class took on a ‘circle of life’ project, where we adopted a newborn bull calf from a dairy farm at the start of the year and at the end had prepare a five course meal from it for 45 people. Inspired by revolutionary Dutch chef Nel Schellekens and her nose-to-tail cookbook on using every part of the animal, I decided to create a special tasting dish from our calf’s organ meats for our menu. For this project I also created the branding and decor, which are described in their own post.
