A superb setting and committed students for a fine regional final
The final of the Georges Baptiste Cup for the Alsace region took place at the magnificent Au Crocodile restaurant in Strasbourg. Over the course of the day, the students took part in a number of Olympic-themed events, including a technical workshop to identify dressing errors, an order-taking exercise with a sales pitch, the creation of a White Negroni cocktail, and the preparation and serving of a steak tartare.
At the end of the day, the members of the jury, including Mrs Jung, deliberated and chose Yann WEIL, an apprentice at Villa Lalique, to represent Alsace and CEFPPA Adrien Zeller in the national final to be held in Clichy on March 18.
Our expert Nathalie Gaspard took the opportunity to ask him a few questions!
