Chefs in Wynn Palace with Brad Barnes

Wynn Palace, Macau 

Train the trainer, team training

The objective here was to help the talented chef and sous chef team be better at training their employees, improving communication skills and also learning more about western cooking styles. With this came the building of a great culinary culture foundation which has remained in place. 

A sensory tasting tray of food flavor samples

IFMA, Napa California

Understanding delicious

In this project we set out to teach folks about how your palate and all senses deliver the message of flavor, taste, texture and visual stimulation. How the hedonic brain connect pleasure with food and of course how you as a food professional can leverage that to manage cravability.

Brad Barnes and flight attendants

Planet 9 Private Flights, San Antonio Texas 

Flight attendant meal prep training

These professional flight attendants were some of the most astute students ever! They were determined to learn more about how to cook better while ensuring customers on board were comfortable and safe. It is a daunting job, and they excel at it. We cooked some great food and they were off to the jets again!

SLAC Dining Cafe

Stanford University, Sand Hill, CA

One of the team favorites is to work in college and university dining to build great concepts for all types of situations. Working with the very talented retail dining team at Stanford, we created a unique quick service healthy and indulgent cafe setting, with very early digital ordering in place so that those who had little time could pre-order and pick up.

NOCHI

New Orleans, LA

Every year our team brings together the best constituents possible to plan and bring to life a facility, particular to food. The New Orleans Culinary and Hospitality Institute is just one example of a ground up space revision. From an empty shell, to an 80k sft school teaching people to cook for a living every day.

The University of Georgia

Athens, GA

One of the best places to eat in college, and there are many, is UGA. I had a quick stop with the team here to evaluate a training strategy and conduct a week long global food team engagement training. The skills learned, enlightened the seasoned cooks to new possibilities for menus, skills and techniques.

Pythian Market

New Orleans, LA

Another project in the Big Easy, was Pythian Market, an 11 vendor and 3k sft event space that brings some of the best food in NOLA to the crowds every day. This project was both a concept plan and facility design and is still one of the hot spots for NOLA foodies every day of the week.
