THE Temasek Culinary Academy opened its kitchens and
restaurants to Temasek Polytechnic’s Culinary &
Catering Management (CCM) and Hospitality & Tourism
Management (HTM) students in April this year. Equipped
with the latest high-quality food production and restaurant
equipment, this new $5.5 million F&B complex was
specially built to hone the students’ culinary
and service skills.
The Academy’s facilities include a café,
a full-service restaurant which boasts a Western and
an Asian section, a wine tasting studio, a culinary
theatre where chefs demonstrate the finer points of
culinary skills, and a skills kitchen where students
undergo basic culinary skills training.
| "We are in
the process of building a strong foundation
towards providing the best culinary programme
in Asia through facilities and curriculum.
The Temasek Culinary Academy marks the dawn
of the next level of culinary and service
education in Asia." |

CCM students will have the privilege of being taught
by three chef-instructors from the world-renowned Culinary
Institute of America (CIA), besides TP’s own award-winning
lecturers. These students are in fact the first in Asia
to receive this training by the chef-instructors, following
an earlier agreement between TP and the CIA.
