WelTec chefs. World champions
“
It’s been amazing winning the competition, but I’ve also made fantastic contacts in the hospitality industry from across the world.
”
Ryan Bloomfield and Daniel Baird.
At only 19 years of age, two of our students took out the top prize on the world stage at the International Culinary Cooking Competition. Ryan Bloomfield and Daniel Baird spent ten weeks preparing for the competition which was held in Kansas at Johnson County Community College in June. Along with their studies and work, the students spent 15 hours each week vigorously formulating the perfect method to winning this international cooking competition. Ryan and Daniel travelled to Kansas with WelTec chef tutors Ray Morrell and Scott Campbell. They had to prepare a three course menu during a gruelling three and a half hour competition. The invitation only competition saw the young students test their skills against the best trainee chefs in the world. The competition required the preparation of a three course menu which was served to an American judging panel. “I was ecstatic when we won,” says Daniel, “It was a really great feeling after so many months of hard work to take out the top prize. When the judges read out New Zealand as the winner both Ryan and I were so surprised.”

The experience that the students have gained gives them the ultimate foundation for an exciting career. “It’s been amazing winning the competition, but I’ve also made fantastic contacts in the hospitality industry from across the world. After competing I now have a lot of new options for when I’ve graduated. Competing has definitely opened up so many different and new possibilities,” says Ryan. Their chef tutors noted their cool and calm manner throughout the competition. Dealing with unfamiliar kitchens, equipment and new ingredients was not a daunting task for the talented duo.
