Every semester two staff members from the Hotel Ritz Paris travel to César Ritz Le Bouveret to meet, interact and share real-world professional experiences from the legendary 5 star luxury hotel.
This month Hotel Ritz Paris Head Barman, Mr. Colin Field and Hotel Manager, Mr. Jean-Pierre Trevisan made the journey offering an educational experience the students won’t soon forget.
The very charismatic Mr. Colin Field, Head Barman of the Hotel Ritz Paris spent an entire day with César Ritz Le Bouveret term 4 students. He hosted a creative lecture, shared professional anecdotes and introduced a role-playing exercise that was enthusiastically received by the students.
Over the lunch hour he was invited to dine at the exclusive chef’s table where the term 5 Culinary Arts Academy students prepared, cooked and served a surprise meal for him. As the head barman at the Hotel Ritz Paris’ Hemingway bar, Mr. Field has been voted twice as the world’s best barman by Forbes magazine and is the author of the successful books "The cocktails of the Ritz Paris" and "The Ritz Paris: Mixing drinks, a simple story".
The second special guest visitor Mr. Trevisan is a familiar face around César Ritz Colleges and acts as a judge for the Term 7 student’s business plans each semester. He is known for taking a very interactive approach with this responsibility and often asks tough questions backed by thoughtful and constructive feedback for the students. Mr. Trevisan was also a special guest at the recent graduation where he presented a prize to an outstanding Culinary Arts Academy student.
It is thanks to dedicated guests like these that make studying at César Ritz Colleges and Culinary Arts Academy an exceptional experience. A big thanks to Mr. Trevisan and Mr. Field for sharing their talents and experiences with our group.
