Calvin Poole has been appointed Executive Chef at Park Inn by Radisson Cape Town Foreshore
Mitchells Plain-born chef Calvin Poole (27) has worked and served in the culinary industry and a focused innovation leader for the past 9 years.
His passion for cooking started at home, helping his mother out with meal preparations at dinner time. It was at the age of 12 that Poole dreamt of working as a chef one day. In doing so, he watched cooking programmes of TV of the likes of Jamie Oliver and Martin Yan.
Poole is excited to join Park Inn by Radisson Cape Town Foreshore as of March 2020 where he regards his new position as a "learning environment for everyone". He sees the hotel's kitchen as an innovative space for his staff where they can increase their knowledge and skills about food, while also making the kitchen a "passionate food hub".
If that's not all, Poole is looking to cook up a storm in the kitchen with some "homely and hearty quality food" - with a twist.
