The Future Chef competition, organised by Springboard UK, aims to develop skills and knowledge relating to the catering and hospitality industry. Cristian will now progress to the next round, which will be held at University College Birmingham in February 2017. To help him prepare for the next round Cristian has been assigned a chef mentor.

Cristian, who aspires to work in the food industry, said, “I really enjoy cooking and can’t wait for the second round.

“I’m going to develop my dishes to make them even better.”
