CHEF CONNOR LOZZA
COOKING HAS ALWAYS BEEN A LOVE OF MINE, BUT IT DIDN’T BECOME MY PASSION UNTIL A FEW YEARS AGO WHEN I LEFT THE INDUSTRY FOR SOME TIME.
I was quick to miss it and that’s when I realized it’s my passion and that’s what I want to do for the rest of my life. I have many fond memories of my time here – I can’t pick a favourite memory because every day at the college is special to me. This is my personal favourite recipe for a breakfast sandwich.
