Culinary professor Anthony Borgo travelled to Italy last
fall to become a certified teacher of Academia Barilla's
Fundamentals of Italian Gastronomy program.
As the world's leading pasta maker, Barilla offers a
three-part certification program promoting authentic
Italian cuisine. Chef Borgo will teach level one, making
Georgian Barilla's only partner in North America.
Chef Borgo visited Barilla headquarters in June
to compete against 21 other chefs in the World Pasta
Competition. He impressed the judges with his featured
dish: pasta shells with smoked Arctic Char, clams and
spicy tomato sauce.
"My dish was a celebration of Italian culture from a
truly Canadian perspective," he says.
Culinary students at Georgian can look forward to new
learning pathways that will broaden their understanding of
food and how it relates to history, place and culture.
Prior to joining Georgian in 2008, Chef Borgo worked
in the hospitality industry for 25 years as an executive chef
and entrepreneur.
