The Saxon Boutique Hotel & Spa
These were photos I took while working at the Saxon Hotel in Sandton. I was a Demi Chef de Partie here and was working in the fish section. The head chef was Chef David Higgs! I enjoyed working there very much!

Turkey Christmas 2011
These photos were taken when I visited Turkey in December 2011 with my mother. We tried out all different types of local cuisine and were very pleasantly surprised! They had many pickled items and a variety of condiments. We specifically enjoyed the apple infused teas they had to offer.

SA Chefs Academy & Cape Town![]() While I was training at the South African Chefs Academy in Cape Town I fell in love with Cape Town and hope to return to it in the near future. Its a place that moves at its own pace and is filled with home made fresh food stalls. Some of my favorites are the Old Biscuit Mill and the Eastern Food Buzzer.

The Saxon Boutique Hotel & Spa![]() My first job was at the beautiful Saxon Hotel in Sandton where I worked under Chef David Higgs. He's a very knowledgeable chef that's always willing to help you out if you need a hand. He is always passing his knowledge to those around him. My favorite place at the Saxon was the roof top garden as seen in the picture above. I would get fresh herbs and veggies from here every morning before things got too crazy in the kitchen. It always cleared my mind and put me in a good mood for the rest of the day. It was the best possible place to start off the day and I had a great mentor who was my CDP. We worked well together and were always on the ball. If all the people I worked with were as competent as she was then everything in the kitchen would be as it should be.
