Culinary B-school, Kamaxi College of Culinary Arts (KCCA) has appointed Chef Patrick Albert as Head Chef on its faculty. With expansive experience and expertise in onshore and offshore hospitality avenues, he is a member of the Académie Culinaire de France.
In 2014, he was the recipient of the Maître Cuisinier de France, a title bestowed on upon chefs entrusted with the task of fostering the French culinary arts and aiding professional development.
For 20 years, Chef Albert has been working with the Disney Cruiseline of the Walt Disney Company. He spent a decade as an executive chef on the cruise ship ‘Disney Wonder and Magic.’ The next ten years witnessed his management expertise as an on-site executive chef at ‘Remy,’ an acclaimed restaurant on ‘Disney Dream’ and ‘Disney Fantasy’. In setting up the restaurant, he has actively coordinated with Michelin-starred chef Arnaud Lallement and 5 Diamonds chef Scott Hunnel.
Besides possessing culinary prowess, the master chef also projects a compelling managerial track-record. His cruise line background has enabled him to serve a diverse range of guests and work on an internationally competitive pedestal. Sensitivity to special dietary requirements, hygiene, and quality led him to be regarded as a French Master Chef. His extensive knowledge of the French culinary arts makes him an asset at KCCA.
“Chef Albert knows the ropes,” said Rati Telgu, Programme Director KCCA, “He is a storehouse of knowledge, technique, grit, and ethics. His mentorship will guide our students towards scaling global heights.”
Chef Albert’s views coincide with this ideology. “Being open to challenges, flexible to accommodate trends, and taking creative risks; these are the key attributes of culinary leaders. This opportunity at KCCA will enable me to inculcate these values in aspirants,” he said.
