Dato Fazley Yaakob (Celebrity chef & owner of Suka Sucre Bistro)

Being in Le Cordon Bleu allowed me to dig deeper into what I thought was soft passion had became my proffesion and lifestyle. I learned and explored the French way of cooking whilst at school. It also made me a wholesome person being able to share what I had learned from Le Cordon Bleu. As the first Ambassador of Le Cordon Bleu Malaysia, it means shouting out loud to the world that "Look, I’m a Le Cordon Bleu graduate". To master the techniques, innovate and present a good cake, you need to learn from Le Cordon Bleu master chef instructors.

Amelia Ng

Sous Chef at Willow Kuala Lumpur, Champion- 2017 Jeunes Chefs Rôtisseurs Competition in Frankfurt, Germany

After joining Le Cordon Bleu there is no looking for me in the food industry. I was able to refine my cooking techniques and that gave me a great head star into the working world as a chef. This is because Le Cordon Bleu does not only retain its classical cooking techniques but also introduces students to cutting edge culinary techniques that are used in the industry today. For that, I am proud to be a part of the Le Cordon Bleu alumni.
