Excitement is building at Chalet Pomet as Sally and Oli gear up for the upcoming cookery season, tailored for Duke of Edinburgh’s Award (DofE) participants completing their Residential Section. With their aprons on and their enthusiasm high, they’re preparing to welcome students to an experience that goes far beyond just learning how to cook.
Sally, Chalet Pomet’s seasoned chef, has been busy planning menus that will introduce students to a world of flavours, techniques, and kitchen know-how. From basic skills like knife handling and meal prep to more advanced dishes, she’s crafting an engaging program that balances fun with hands-on learning. Her approach isn’t just about teaching recipes; it’s about sharing a love for fresh ingredients, creativity in the kitchen, and the satisfaction of preparing a meal from scratch.
Oli, ever the energetic host, has been working alongside Sally to get everything ready. His role will be to support students in the day-to-day flow of the chalet kitchen, ensuring they feel comfortable and confident as they tackle new challenges. Oli’s focus is on creating a welcoming environment where everyone feels part of the team, from prepping ingredients to serving the finished dishes. His hands-on style and practical advice will help students learn while keeping the atmosphere light and enjoyable.
As Sally and Oli finalise their preparations, the chalet itself is coming to life in anticipation. With its cosy corners and stunning mountain views, Chalet Pomet offers the perfect setting for students to not only learn but relax and connect with each other. Between cooking sessions, there will be time to enjoy the beauty of the Alps and experience the unique camaraderie that forms when you share meals and new experiences.
The countdown is on, and soon the chalet will be filled with the laughter and bustle of students eager to roll up their sleeves and get cooking. Sally and Oli are ready, and they can’t wait to welcome this Autumn season’s group of young chefs to the Chalet Pomet kitchen.
