A bittersweet announcement from our Nossi Culinary department: Chef Anthony Mandriota is retiring! Chef Anthony was pivotal in the creation and implementation of Nossi College developing a culinary program and has been the department chair since its inception. The two-year curriculum is vast and detailed, with graduates walking away with incredible knowledge of the ins and outs of the culinary industry. We are so grateful to have had him steering the ship here at Nossi.
Onto the sweet part: Chef Russell Ransom @russell.ransom will be taking over the Culinary Department Chair position!! Chef Russ’ experience and portfolio is diverse and his enthusiasm for culinary is unmatched, we are SO lucky to have him in this role.
Congratulations and thank you to both Chef Anthony and Chef Russ for everything! 🍴 👨🍳
